Winston

Elvis

Gizmo

Dexter

Thoughts on these? Any others?

That is a Gizmo if ever I saw one. It came to mind even before I saw your list.

He looks like a Poirot
Hercule for short.

Omg is he a Havana Brown?! We grew up with these cats, and they are amazing! Super intelligent, high maintenance, hilarious cats. One of ours could jump up and open doors, and if you commanded him he would jump up from the floor and put his arms round your neck. They would follow us on walks and sit in the pushchair with my little sister on the school run, and jump out and run to greet me when I came out of school! Sure everyone thought we were mad, but the cats called the shots, and following us everywhere was just part of their nature. I absolutely adore them, and would love to own one, but cats (especially orientals, and siamese) make my allergies awful. Good luck op, I'm definitely very jealous of your new family member!

Geoffrey is a brilliant name!!

FayCarew · 23/11/2023 20:27

@DiaNaranja yes he is! Your cats sound lovely. I' hope he grows up to have as big a character ❤️

Gorgeous. Looks like a picture on a Pharaonic temple. How about any of these?
Osiris (Ozzy)
Rameses
Ptolemy
Pharoah

Ooh yes that's cute and so appropriate.

@Nochoiceleft 's Mogwai would suit too though I guess it would get shortened to Moggy which is a bit underwhelming for such a gorgeous cat.

I always imagine having to call them in from the back door and how stupid it will sound to the neighbours. (Family member once had a cat called Tiddles, it was mortifying. when cat-sitting).

Hotchocolatemousse · 27/11/2023 21:15

@Whatsasname what did you call the little fella in the end?

Whatsasname · 27/11/2023 22:44

We haven't got him yet. He is joining us on Wednesday. We're about 90% sure on Geoffrey
