Picking a kitten up on thursday but we don't have a name, its a ginger taby (tom cat)?

Any ideas?

I quite like human names or something a bit different.

I am rubbish with names, our cat used to be our neighbours and was already named!

I read somewhere that cats can hear and therefore respond better to names end in ee
eg Charlie, Alfie, etc

Funny, me and DP were talking about this a few days ago. We have two cats, both girls, neither have a "real" name but we thought the next one we get we'll call it a proper name. We liked Dave or Brian. It amused us .
