He’s a drug fiend :eek:?
Howabout Hemingway? ( note the first paragraph under “history” )
Thumbkin to go with Pumpkin.
Then he’d have a pre-written song all ready to go!
The pitcher Antonio Alfonseca has polydactyly, so: Antonio! Or Alfonse/Alphonse.
Yogi Berra
With hands that big, he would be natural born baseball catcher.
How about just Digit?
Or sticking with the overall big feet theme, Yeti.
Nine cats, huh? Bet you don’t have an unoccupied box or drawer in the place.
Or Sasquatch.
Darn you, TVeblen, beat me by a thumb! He totally says his name is Digit. Short for Digitus Impudicus–which is Latin for a middle finger salute!
Ok, then I vote for Stanley. No reason other than it just popped into my head.
Pollex?
(From Latin for thumb)
And holy cow, nine? How do they all get along? I’ve only got four and they’re always trying to do each other in.
I gotta cast my vote for this one. 
I’ve had a pair of scars on my right palm for the past 20 years or there abouts. They’re from the teeth of a big gray tabby named Thomas (his owner said he liked to be petted, and remembered “oh, but not that hip” when he bit me). Thomas and I got along well except for that, and I think your little guy looks a lot like him. So yeah, I suggest Thomas.
Had a few cats. First names that come to mind are “Fuckhead” and “Asshole.” Had an acquaintance who lived in a Jewish neighborhood when “Fink” was an offensive name for Jews and he named his cat “Fink” so he could yell, “Hey, Fink, you stupid cat!” Seemed like a stupid name, and I was only nine.
WIth those paws, and those markings, he looks like he might have a bit of marble bengal in him? My cat, Izydor, looked exactly like that as a kitten. He’s now nine months old, and is HUGE… twice the size of his tabby brother, and he is a cross bengal/black cat of some sort. Obligatory pics (the most recent ones I have are of him playing fetch in the snow):
Snow Izzy 1
Snow Izzy 2
Snow Izzy 3
I throw my vote in for digit or pollox. I really like digit.
Hitch (gotta be a good hitchhiker with thumbs like that)
Texter (and pretty fast with the SMS)
Gene, Siskel, Roger or Ebert (he’ll aways rate it four thumbs up)
He’s a polydactyl cat, which I always associate with Hemingway, and he probably is or will be neutered, so how about Barnes? Or maybe just Jake?
I just want to say, a kitten with a nose that big and ears to match is going to be huge when he grows up. HUGE I tell you. Trust me on this.
See? I told you! Huge! That looks less like a housecat and more like a jaguar!
Name him Polly. I would.
He’s a Christmas kitten, so how about Santa Paws?
Yes, I’d say his infantile morphological characteristics and unskilled hunting moves make him “cute” to human eyes, as they would for almost any baby mammalian predator. If you don’t want to wait a while to get a better idea of his personality, I’d just call him Duster. Please don’t use a stupid cutesy pun or add “Mister” to his name.
My dad used to call really big feet ‘clod hoppers’, so my choice would be Claude.
