Kitten names needed, warning Kitty Porn!

So I'e had this wee guy for a week. He needs a name, I'd love something fitting or clever.

He has a bit of attitude and plenty to say for himself but also a snuggle bug.

Current front runners are Leo/Lionel or something like Eddie/Teddy/Freddie, just dont think anything is quite right.

We lost our beloved Lucy over a year ago aged 17 so he has a lot to live up to!

He’s so cute! I love Lionel.

How about Ned or Wilbur?

Plump82 · 25/06/2026 19:45

He looks like a Monty to me!

Shortsally42 · 25/06/2026 19:47

He's just adorable.

I like Lionel.

Also Roger.

Or Bartholomew. Bart for short. Bartholomew when he's naughty!

He's a Toby 😍

Yeah Eric is good. Earache when he's being shouty.

WhatNowHmm · 25/06/2026 19:53

Thank you all. Some great ideas, some we can't use as they are other cats in the street (and one dog) or are relatives. Im keeping a list though. Might need to try some out.

I expect you are far too young to remember the ladybird book, “Tiptoes the mischievous kitten”. The kitten in question was actually black, but your kit looks like he might be trouble!

I'd call him 'Mine' :-D

WhatNowHmm · 25/06/2026 20:05

I've already had many requests to take him off my hands. I am sharing him nicely with family but I know he loves me best 😁

I think im definitely leaning more towards people names, I wanted Brian and Percy on the list but that was rejected.

I'm booking him in for all his kitten checks and vaccinations but I feel embarrassed that he has no name. We are just rubbish at making decisions.

I'm not young but ive not heard of that book mentioned above, I'll need to look it up.

OK so if not Eric then surely he is FredERICk.
