The Naming of Cats

We have two new beautiful little kittens. A tortie and a pitch black little boy.

The children have settled on the name Cookie for the tortie. Partly because we've eaten our way through a lot of chocolate-chip cookies in lockdown, and she has all the right colours.

But I'm out of ideas for names for the little boy that could go with Cookie, and DH isn't helping with his 'jokey' suggestions.

Any ideas?

Jack is also really cute (blackjack)

Black cats are ace but so hard to take good photos of! You just end up with a black patch and a pair of eyes, if you're lucky.

Mine are Danny and Linda.

I personally don't like 'pair' names, but each to their own.

Tad (big fluffy boy)

Why is no one else posting cat-pics? C’mon, I love pet threads!

Kenneth and Helga look very regal!

Matilda and Eponine

Eponine only has three legs.
She was knocked over a few years ago, but miraculously survived, though she lost a leg, a toe and a tooth.

Charcoal.

Keith or Gary.

@Lordfrontpaw Kenneth was Helga's brother and was wonderful. Helga believes she is Royal and is generally disgusted with the world and all those in it. Imagine Yoda going over to the Dark side. That's Helga. She's a knobhead Grin

The naming of cats is a difficult matter, it isn't just one of your everyday games, you may think I'm as mad as a hatter when I tell you a cat must have three different names.
