We are utterly stumped! This gentle boy is 16 weeks. We’ve had him a week and he’s still quite timid but is such a gentle soul, quite reserved, loves his food… he doesn’t like being picked up very much but is getting more trusting by the day.

We’ve spent hours looking at cat name websites but nothing fits. I think he needs quite a gentlemanly name if that makes sense?

Any suggestions most welcome!

Bertram - Bert or Bertie for short
Wilfred- Wilf
Because I love an old man name.

Ash or Ember - because he makes me think of smoke/fire

Arian is a lovely Welsh name meaning silver

Nox- the lights out spell in Harry potter and it has a good cat attention getting kind of sound.

Cornelius?

Oh I love Cornelius!

supernoodletrain · 20/11/2023 11:36

@LilacpointMummy it's my top cat name (I don't currently have a cat but it's part of my Five Year Plan. Doctor Cornelius a la Narnia is the inspiration - this handsome man could quite easily be a Doctor Cornelius, he looked accomplished!

I'm going to add it to my list of potential cat names - I have lots of cats at the moment but there's always room for more 😸
