Husband wanted to call him Tango (pines of rome) I wanted Mac (digger66) I was thinking along the lines of McVitie.. but like Big Mac perhaps that'll 'sell' the name to the OH! ha ha

My huge old ginger cat was called Ginger - original or what!!! How about Marmaduke or Tigger?

What about macavity, from the musical, the poem goes

Macavity's a Mystery Cat: he's called the Hidden Paw -
For he's the master criminal who can defy the Law.
He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair:
For when they reach the scene of crime, macavity's not there!

My ginger tom is called The Hodgeheg, shortened to Hodge as I found him at no more than five weeks on a main road at rush hour

 

[EQUISCENE]

Awwww katastrophykat that's a great poem and I could call him Mac for short, although OH still isn't going for the name! do you think the RSPCA would do a part exchange ha ha. Alexart I like Tigger but my friend calls her cat that and we also used to have a fluffy ginger cat called Ginger too!

How about Zingiber - Zingy for short.

Zingiber is the genus of ginger, which are the true gingers.

I have a large marmalade cat and he is named Orlando after the series of books popular in the 30's about Orlando The Marmalade Cat. He sounds lovely whatever his name.
