My childhood ginger cat in the 80s was called Ginger.

Now I'd be tempted by Ron or Ginny depending on the sex Smile

Also, Pad Thai, or Paddy for short.

I know female ginger cats are rare (same as Calicos are almost always female) but I'd pick Amber if your cat is female.

I agree we need pictures Grin

Our neighbours where we used to live (three guys house-sharing) had a ginger cat which they called Nutter. Not sure whether it was short for anything (Gingernut, for instance), but he was definitely a bit nutty. Lovely and purry though. Was funny when they shouted it Grin.
