To ask you to help name my kittens?

We’re lucky enough to be welcoming two tiny kittens to our family next week.
They’re boys and have black coats.

Any ideas? Smile

I do believe that the first rule of Mumsnet is if you're asking for names for your kittens, you must first post a photo of the kittens for us to coo over to help us come up with suitable names Smile

If we named them Bert and Ernie I’d have an excuse to watch Sesame Street AND It’s A Wonderful Life loads Grin

Higgle and Piggle.
I don't really think that, I just want to be on the VERY cute kitten thread!

Lisabel · 09/09/2018 16:10

Awww they're so cute!!! I used to have two black cats and they look like they did as kittens.

Strongmummy- what is that about?! poor OP.

Names are so subjective. You could just pick a theme with related names like Bill and Ben or Cookie and Crumble.

If not then I like:

Shadow,
Socks
Bibs/Bibby (if either of them has a white bib!)
Tigger,
Teddy
Tommy
Mr Tibs
Gizmo
Archie
Simba
Harvey/ Henry
Sammy
Leo
Fluffy
Figaro
Fudge
Bobby
Oreo
Nibbles
Noah
Felix

How exciting! hope they settle in well.

Finn and Jake.

ICantBelieveIDidThis · 09/09/2018 16:15

The little one curled up like a little dormouse or squirrel is adorable.

Squeak

agnurse · 09/09/2018 16:18

The one that has white you might call Oreo.

Some other options:
Midnight
Mr. T (the name of an all-black cat owned by friends of ours)

I once met the most gorgeous all-black cat I have ever seen. His name was Jason. Don't ask me why; I honestly don't know.
