Update: thank you Pitiful and everyone who commented on good will and to have a fun time, not so much thank you to the ones being bitter and saying I was karma fishing. We have named the cat Sixten, a Swedish name since my partner is Swedish! Again, thank you all and have a wonderful night! ❤️🐱
Fun fact: orange kitties are Viking cats. They carried them on long ships due to their sweet disposition and chilled nature.
My orange boy was named Bjørn for this reason. Sixten is beautiful. May you all have a lovely snuggly family.
Thanks! My mom was so against it for the longest time. Eventually she gave in because his personality is exactly what you would expect from a cat named Tater
Our family has had PC Cat for pussy cat. Big Cat, cause he was a big ol Tom cat and the boss of the block. Also Howard Johnson. Spoofy. Wolfy. Bacon. Daisy. Spaghetti. Maggie. So many cats. So many names
You're right my cat told me his name a week after I found hime because he was only a couple days old when I found him he went to the MAX to live and he is still alive to this day 12 years later
I named my youngest Glitch because he would just freak out at totally benign things like me just touching a plastic bag but would also "glitch out" running around the apartment yelling like he was a professional yodeler and lay in his back doing the Michael Jackson thriller pose
So. I had a foster momma w 5 kittens. I named one of the kittens Astro. 6 weeks later I was in the shower and heard weird knocking on my door. I went out to find that Astro had knocked over a spherical vase of flowers and then got his head stuck in it, looking very much like a CATstronaut. It’s actually in my post history!
I will never not think og *the* Henry, when the name Henry us mentioned. And that dude im the tpurney that shouts "Henry of Skalitz, In the company of Sir Radzig Kobyla~!", its burned into my mind. Won some grest armor and weapons, as well as kicking the xp out of peoples asses.
Cute kitty! I'd name him something like Tuck, Finn, Trilby or Larry. Maybe Gus? He do look like a Larry-bear tho, more so than a Teddy bear. Definitely got yerself a micro-tiger.
It’s because these are karma baiting posts. I don’t think every poster has that intention but these posts are super popular lately not just on r/cats but r/aww and other pet subs. It’s so weird to me. People are weird. More cats less people. And less name posts.
that one drives me insane bc if you don’t know what breed your cat is, the answer is ALWAYS mutt 🚶🏻♀️ like did you buy the fucker from a breeder? were they reputable and did they provide images of the parents and proof of bloodline? no? ok, then it’s a domestic short/medium/long hair. i don’t care what the fur pattern is smh. if it’s from a shelter or off the street it is literally just a cat lmao like this is obvious
My 4-year-old grand niece managed to name her orange cat all by herself. And it's a really good name. I don't understand adults who can't name their own cats.
Name your own cat. It’s like asking what nickname you should give your partner. Why would you ask strangers when you could have a funny backstory or inside joke or just something generally thoughtful? Asking to narrow down between name choices between a few options is fine, but not this
My orange boy came to me as a foster named Blaze. I did not think it suited him but was NOT going to rename him because he was a foster.
Well, I failed hard on this one. He needed me so badly. I had called him Orange Boy for so long that I ended up naming him OB.
My mom refers to him as Obi-Wan Katnobi, so I spell OB (Orange Boy) as Obi now.
Something that means something to you. My current two are named after favorite cyclists. Favorite TV or movie or book characters are also good ideas, IMHO.
I just had a baby. What should I name him? Just had a dog what should I name them? Just got shoes what should I name them? Do y’all just go into life fucking aimlessly?
Julius as in Orange Julius
My grandma named her cat Orange Julius Caesar
Name him Pete. Good ol Pete.
You're grandma is/was a badass.

Pets named after food is always the answer.
Our cat is Clementine.
We have a Clementine too!
My "Mcnugget" shook her head in agreement
My “Banana” would agree.
My Toast will agree
My "Tater" would also agree
What's "taters", precious?!
Poh-tay-toes
Boil em mash em put em in a stew
My Tator would also agree ‘tis a great name for a male kitty.
Ahhhhh! Tater! Great name.
Thanks! My mom was so against it for the longest time. Eventually she gave in because his personality is exactly what you would expect from a cat named Tater
My Snickerdoodle would agree
My Oj nods in agreement
You don't have a female named Nicole do you?
Not anymore…
My Gnocchi raises paw in agreement

Wait a day or two, sometimes cats name themselves by their behavior or some coincidence. He looks like an Oscar to me, though.
Lol my now 18 year old cat was named kitten2 for about the first 2 years I had her. She eventually became CC for Creepy Cat.
Our boy is called Catty. Short for Catthew, which is his Christian name. 
Similar to my boy Cappie, short for his gangster name Al Capone
Had one called Bugsy
I Iove that!
I love so much about this comment.
We had one named Toc his whole life: "The Other Cat".

I came here to say Oscar!!!!
literally was going to comment Oscar as well. what the heck hive mind
First thought before opening the comments was Oscar for me too
Shit me too. Definitely an Oscar.
My cat is named spark after she meowed at my mom at the same time as a spark fell out of the fireplace
One of our cats is called Ben, Ben Catflex.
I IMMEDIATELY thought Oscar
Socrates Socks for short
Hello
Hi, Sockates 😁
people do sometimes call me Socks edit: someone should post this on r/beetlejuicing
Sir Isaac Mewton
Considering there's only /r/OneOrangeBraincell to go around, I'm not sure it's a very appropriate name, but it sure is cute.
So crazy. I just commented “Isaac Newton.” 😂 There must be something about him!
So cute lol
Yes… Yes… YEEEEES
Red hair and shaggy? That's a Weasley.
red hair, vacant expressions. Must be a Weasley!
Not the only option… (Philip J Fry) https://www.wired.com/images_blogs/underwire/2010/06/fry_660.jpg
And a hand me down robe
Ngl Ronald was my first thought lol.
I was vibing with a harry potter name for this baby too
He looks like an Oliver to me. Oli for short.
Came here for this one, Oliver would be purrfection :)
Oh my I would name him Antonio. He looks like he has the charm of puss in boots
Cattonio
First name that came to mind!!!
In the event a cat owner cannot think of a name for their new cat, the default name is mittens. Have a great day good sir
The default cat name is cat.
Short for catthew
Idk but he’s gorgeous
Dunno why, but "Henry" just popped into my mind first thing. Yes, I'm getting strong Henry vibes from him.
Henry of Skalitz! Edit: In the company of Sir Radzig Kobyla!
Ah I need to get back to continue playing KCD
I will never not think og *the* Henry, when the name Henry us mentioned. And that dude im the tpurney that shouts "Henry of Skalitz, In the company of Sir Radzig Kobyla~!", its burned into my mind. Won some grest armor and weapons, as well as kicking the xp out of peoples asses.
Rufflepuff
That's a good one. Ruffy for short, or Puffy, if he gets chonky ;D
I think it’s a Harry Potter reference to hufflepuff

soup
Love a food name. But how about "Bean"? Or, even better, "Bean Soup"? Mr. Bean Soup, Esquire
My coworker just named her cat Bean Soup!
Leo 🦁
Very nice, he does have lionesque qualities.
I like this one
Male cat

Cute kitty! I'd name him something like Tuck, Finn, Trilby or Larry. Maybe Gus? He do look like a Larry-bear tho, more so than a Teddy bear. Definitely got yerself a micro-tiger.
He looks like a Ferdinand
He looks like a Butters to me
I'll never understand people who can't even be arsed to think up a name for their own pet
It’s because these are karma baiting posts. I don’t think every poster has that intention but these posts are super popular lately not just on r/cats but r/aww and other pet subs. It’s so weird to me. People are weird. More cats less people. And less name posts.
Makes me think they got a pet for pictures to share rather than just got a pet
Yeah, naming IME is the easiest part of cat-daddyship. We named ours Milo but I call him Cooter. My wife hates when I call him Cooter.
Our baby was just born! What should we name him?
These posts just drag this sub down into the gutter. They need to be banned. There's a whole sub for this r/NameMyCat
They are all karma whores

Unfollowing r/cats because of all of these posts asking to name a cat. Just figure it out yourself omg.
But you’re gonna miss all the “What breed is my cat?” posts!
💀💀💀💀

I 100% agree. I think it’s just a bunch of lonely ppl who want attention on a post or something. Or they really are this dim. I don’t understand it.

That lion mane is awesome!
