Looks like we will be adding a cat to our household. (As in ONE...UNO...SINGLE.... ::) )
My choices for names are: Balerion the Black Dread, Meraxes and Vagar (After dragons in the George RR Martin Song of Ice and Fire series). Or as a fourth choice, Oberon.
My last cat was Moonshadow. Before that a pair, Sin and Bane. And before THAT, Balthazar. ;D
My daughter says "Oh great. Another cat with a name I wont be able to remember or very likely fail to pronounce correctly".  ::)
This from the girl who likes names such as Fluffy, Sparkles...well, you get the picture. We are at opposite ends of the spectrum. Sigh.

Maceo!! Then they could have their very own Jane's Addiction song!  ;)  ;D

My cat's name is Maceo
He's a little man in a cats body
He yawns just like I do
He's convinced I won't eat him
I think he thinks that I'm his dad
Because I saved him from the pound
Well we went down
Down to the pound and that's where we saw Maceo
Cat catcher said to me
"pick one out"
Maceo said
"let me out"
He sleeps right where I do and we wrestle in the morning!
He come to you if you don't bother him
He just likes to do his own thing
My cat's name is Maceo
He's a little man in a cat's body

- Kettle Whistle, Jane's Addiction

Otherwise I like Oberon.. :)

My cat's name is Girlz (as in Mama's Girlz, Baby Girlz, etc..) but never gets called anything besides Little One, Baby, Doodle Bug, or Kitty.. ha!

My cat is a 15 yr old Russian Blue... we fondly refer to as "Chucky", which is short for Charles Manson.  ;D

I've got a Russian Blue too, my daughter named him Bonehead. Because we were getting another bonehead cat instead of a dog. lol Turns out to be a great cat, but daughter and he have always had a love hate relationship. One of my favorites was Bella Donna.

We weren't very creative with cat names. Our first cat was Kitty, and she was followed by Son of Kitty.

LOL, love it!  ;D  I have always had dogs around with cats interspersed here and there. My dogs are cat friendly. I just have to point at something, in this case, the CAT and say "Mom's! Dont touch!!". They wont even sneak a look. :D
Russian Blues....no experience there. Mostly have had black cats and a couple of Siamese.
Going with a black cat again. :)

one of my cats is calls bitesy(he actually bit my brother when he was a kitten)
his brother is Tyson i really wanted to call him Tyndel but mother said she would not be able to pronounce it(if i had waited six months to name him he would have been Monster or little devil)
they were preceided bye several silvesters, samson, boots, whitey, tiger, Panda, stripes, cat(what can i say when you let a 3yr old name a cat thats what you get), Miss kitty(only cat i ever saw have a c-section) and ofcourse squirelly(only closterphobic cat i've ever seen) I know i have odd pets

Name him Bob. I have a goat named Bob, and I love that name for a pet! ....just BOB

LOL, we already have a bird named Bob. :)But I agree, I love the name!
I think I am a bit shot down in my search, I was so certain I was going to look for a male black or siamese cat and someone offered me a pair of five month old black females. I have even LESS of an idea what to name a female cat.  :-\ 
Oh well, may still find exactly what I am looking for. Going to take my time. It's like a family member.
I like somewhat medieval or fantasy names...
The last female cat I had my daughter named (she was five at the time). The cat's name was Alice Lady Bluegown.  ;D
