Please help I need a name for my new cat

We've had him for a month, he's a handsome boy, but quite solid, he's a darling with DH and my other cats, but he's still hissey with me.

He's a right thieving bastard, he's been into our food waste bin and tipped over the main bin twice, you can't take your eye off him when cooking, he's up on the work surface in seconds.

Current suggestions are
Humphrey
Frankie
Ziggy
Beau

I want something to recognise his thieving.

Raffles

I second that.

AvocadoSurprise · 29/10/2024 23:30

He looks like a Rollo to me

RamblinRosie · 29/10/2024 23:34

Ooh! Loving the replies…
Raffles is not a possibility as we’ve already had one with that name, but I love some of the others.

So far Artie, Tux, Humphrey, Tealeaf and Moriarty are my favourites. Will need to consult with my neighbor and, more importantly, her daughter, who are the designated cat feeders when we’re away. I may also need to consult with DH.

I’m drawn to Moriarty, Artie for short, an urbane, thieving bastard… That rather suits him.

Clyde!

Oh, this is the name of my DCat who died this week ( not in a hail of bullets, at least). You need a Bonnie for a Clyde.

I was going to suggest Dodger too, Dodge for short or Artie as suggested.

Scampi (as in Little cousin....). Failing that, Prick. All my cats have had the nickname 'Prick'.

Fartughtyred · 03/11/2024 16:39

Moriarty is a great name!

Moriarty is perfect.

Look at his little socks!

(Artful) Dodger
