Some of you may have seen my other thread and looks like we'll get adopting this gorgeous boy from UAE at the beginning of May.
I liked Percy but DH not keen, DH says he'd like something more Arabic or eastern sounding to reflect where he came from!
I'm a fan of 'old man' kind of names! Any help mumsnetters

He's gorgeous! No idea about names but wanted to say what a handsome cat he is!

LubaLuca · 10/04/2021 14:26

Aww, I love his big ears 😍

I think he looks like a Casper.

Stickytreacle · 10/04/2021 14:27

Persia instead of Percy? Or Saladin?

Thecatisboss · 10/04/2021 14:28

Only idea I've had is Cid (Sid) which baby names website suggests means from a large island.

PurrBox · 10/04/2021 14:29

Maxie, short for Maxamilian.

He is absolutely beautiful.

Jaspar
Tariq
Khan
Zack

PurrBox · 10/04/2021 14:31

Stickytreakle I like Persia or you could spell it Purrsia

BreakfastOfWaffles · 10/04/2021 14:32

If you like old man names, what about Earnest?

Mumelie · 10/04/2021 14:36

Earnie
Benji
Frank
Gilbert

He's very cute 😻

onthecathunt · 10/04/2021 15:43

I do like Earnie and Gilbert, DH still wants something more exotic but has suggested Clark!

Jethro? Cyrus?

He’s gorgeous! 😍

onthecathunt · 10/04/2021 16:22

Otto or Gus are the current front runners

Ghandi

PeskyRooks · 10/04/2021 16:58

Keith or Kenneth

Mumoblue · 10/04/2021 17:01

Old man names, hmmm.
Arthur? Wilfred? Sydney?

Els1e · 10/04/2021 17:04

Looks like an Eric to me. He’s beautiful.

dotty12345 · 10/04/2021 17:05

Walter

Shehasadiamondinthesky · 10/04/2021 17:07

What a cutie. I just got a similar coloured cat and I'm afraid I just call her Tabby!
I'd have gone for Abdul but that means servant which a cat is definitely not.
How about Kalil - good friend
Ramey - loving
Tarif - unique
Wasim - handsome.

brushlaptop · 10/04/2021 17:11

Oh he's so cute!! I like Percy!

Want2beme · 10/04/2021 18:51

He's got beautiful eyes

Ali
Abbi/Abu
Mobie
Freddie (Farooq?)
Gabbie (Gabriel)
I had a friend whose nephew was called something like Zighan, (sorry if that's completely wrong), but he was always called Ziggy. His brother was Gabriel, always called Gabbie. Their father was from the UAE.
Larry (Lawrence of Arabia)
Jazzy

LoveFall · 10/04/2021 18:55

For some reason the name Dazzler popped into my mind. You could use Daz for short.

Ellmau · 10/04/2021 21:46

Lawrence of Arabia!

Having recently named a cat, I can recommend Bob Mortimer's lists on twitter. We rejected Sgt Walnuts, but I think it would fit your chap.
