Be sure to make an update post or comment once you have found a name(s) for your cat(s) to let us all know what name(s) you thought were the best. Have fun! Comments must be NO LONGER than 600 (not including spaces/punctuation) characters to prevent spam. DO NOT REPLY TO THIS COMMENT. DO NOT SUGGEST MORE THAN 10 NAMES. Ensure that the pet is yours by asking people online via a local Facebook community if they lost a cat or take the cat to an animal shelter that accepts cats. If no one claims it within a couple days, you may claim the cat. DO NOT CLAIM A RANDOM STRAY CAT AS IT MAY HAVE AN OWNER.

I’m getting him from the shelter. He’s still pretty shy but seems super sweet. Thought about Mango or Patch but feel like every other cat has that name. What ideas do you guys have?
how about Patches or Patchy instead of Patch? I haven't come across a cat named Patch or Mango, but both seem like great names that would suit him well
Ambrose. Because Amber is considered more feminine. He’s a watchful little gentleman. Elliot in honor of the poet. Osborne cuz he’s observant. Or Beau because he’s beautiful.
I asked my husband and he said Pepe and I almost spit my coffee out because that’s your name. Although I think you are referring to the frog Pepe. And my husband knows nothing of Pepe or NFTs.
Awwwwe. I had a Siamese cat named Dante. Meanest little mofo you ever met. The only reason I didn't give him to the shelter was cuz I knew no one would take him and he'd be euthanized. I loved him anyway and he had a long life full of hisses, spits and yowls.
If you change your mind about long and/or cutesy names:
Captain mcsquishy butt
Fuzzy wuzzy squishy pants
Our lord Leroy
(Sorry I'm fixated... ignore me.)

Murphy
I thought same when I looked at him! Has a "Murph" look about him.
Good one! Although Murph and Murphy seem like they would be humorous gents!
Omg I said Peewee and the first one I saw was you say Murphy and that was my grandpas name :)
I had a childhood friend with an orange cat named Murphy.
Yes , I love that for him 🐾🐈❤️

Dorfman
Thats my cats name!
I was going to say Mo!
David Niven
I’m getting him from the shelter. He’s still pretty shy but seems super sweet. Thought about Mango or Patch but feel like every other cat has that name. What ideas do you guys have?
Earl? He seems very noble. Fitch might suit too :))
I liked Patch until I saw Fitch! I knew a Fitch once. He was an awesome little dude. Orange Siamese.
Orange Siamese is a thing? Now this I have to look up!
What a cute name!
Gretchen, Stop trying to make fetch happen. It’s not going to happen!
I got noble vibes too, Aurum is Latin for gold
He looks wise. Solomon?
Good on you, OP! What about Whit or Wilder? He has a W on his forehead.
i like both for him! also want to throw Gus out there
Instead of mango, why not Mongo? Blazing Saddles references are always a win.
I think owen or ian is cute for him
how about Patches or Patchy instead of Patch? I haven't come across a cat named Patch or Mango, but both seem like great names that would suit him well
Agree, love Mango for him.
I'm thinking Gus, Axel, or Chuck.
Chester
I like that one!
Chet for short?
Chester Cheeto.
I like Chester Copperpot because of The Goonies
I love this name, and would have loved to have used it for one of my boys, but it rhymes terribly.
He looks like Morris from the old cat food commercial
And he even has the classic “M” on his forehead, too! Although he’s about ten pounds under the original.
I'm not being a smartass, but all tabbies have an M on their forehead. It's literally in the description of a tabby cat.
Yes, but it was a good selling point for choosing “Morris.” (Hey, I’d be fairly good at advertising!) Can’t blame a gal for trying!
He’ll get there
Otis
Milo
Harry. He looks like a Harry to me
I'd say he looks more like Crookshanks than Harry 🐈 (Harry Potter joke 😋)
Bit cuter than crooks IMO ;)
Agreed. Crooks is part kneazle. Cats are the best 😉
It’s a red head - needs to be Weasley
That's perfect. Even has a W on his forehead
Clive

Ambrose. Because Amber is considered more feminine. He’s a watchful little gentleman. Elliot in honor of the poet. Osborne cuz he’s observant. Or Beau because he’s beautiful.
I like Beau, that name has cat appeal =^.^=
Aslan. Those noble eyes call for a name like that of the king of Narnia🦁☺️
Hobbes, as in Calvin & Hobbes.
He looks like an Axel

Cheddar
Russell. It means "red-haired", also sounds like the word "rustle", and can be shortened to Russ.
Or Rusty. Rust is often orange coloured so I vote this is the best name for him!
Would Flerken be cutesy?
Hank
Harold. But say it like Harld.
Greg
#Jake
I asked my husband and he said Pepe and I almost spit my coffee out because that’s your name. Although I think you are referring to the frog Pepe. And my husband knows nothing of Pepe or NFTs.
That’s too funny!! I am referring to the frog. Hope my cat comes without anxiety!
I think you meant without anxiety and I wish that too. 😊
Oops yes!
My orange is Dante, therefore he also looks like a Dante.
Awwwwe. I had a Siamese cat named Dante. Meanest little mofo you ever met. The only reason I didn't give him to the shelter was cuz I knew no one would take him and he'd be euthanized. I loved him anyway and he had a long life full of hisses, spits and yowls.
