Any ideas?

Oh I change my vote to Fred and George!

Fred and George I like.

My boy kittens were Noon and Midnight. Brothers, same litter but as different as night and day.

I don't get Fred and George? Confused

Fred and Ginger better.

Thanks, keep 'em coming! We had a wonderful MC boy called Merlin who died in 2014 at the grand age of 20; I wondered if these newbies names could reference him in some way?

Another vote for Fred and George. They're gorgeous!

Snapespeare · 09/01/2016 13:28

Fred and George weasley, from Harry Potter. :-)

I had a friend who had brothers called Ronnie and reggie, one of them got run over Sad so she got a girl to keep the remaining brother company, I suggested she should be called violet, as Ronnie and reggie had a sister called violet. She's now called violet.

I have a friend who has cat-brothers called Eric and Ernie. :-)

Guiltypleasures001 · 09/01/2016 15:44

Um wham and bam dunno why they are gorge though X

SquadGoals · 09/01/2016 15:55

I LOVE Fred and George.

Especially after Merlin, keeping the wizard theme alive.

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 10/01/2016 01:10

Oh yes, Fred and George were wizards too - definitely my favourite choice!

sashh · 11/01/2016 06:21

The one in front looks like a Jasper to me, how about Marmaduke - less obvious than marmalade or Chivers?

Sticking with the marmalade theme, Hartley, Dundee, Seville.

Update: the fluffy boys are to be known as Tom and Ziggy. Tribute to the late, great DB.
