We have a moochie fuzzy white cat whose name is Albert. There could be a Bertness about your kitten, as well.
Patch or Patches
kitten X is absolutely adorable. My kitten name of choice is Wiggins. (i can picture standing in the back doorway calling ‘Wiggins! Wiggy Wiggy Wiggy!’) however, X looks too regal to be a wiggins i think. Niko is cute. But, you know, having two boys, they will fight. We have two brothers, Ren and Stimpy, who grew up together and were neutred early on. They eat from the same bowl, and occasionally will wash each others heads (aaaw) but still go through phases of being very territorial and aggressive to each other. Usually, they work it out in the end. This is My Room, that is Your Room.
Well, “Spot”, of course!
I had a kitty once that had, what looked like quotation marks between his eyes. His name was “Bartlett” (As in Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations) We called him Bart.
Hubby says he looks like a “Knight” “Sir Galahad”, mayhaps?
Kitten X is the way to go. You could even twist it around and create an elaborate backstory under the premise that he’s Kitten the Tenth!
Lucky?
Thanks for the suggestions - we still haven’t decided, so keep 'em coming! I think Kitten X would be funny if he was a one off - but I am kind of hoping for a name to fit in with Milo and Phebe. We’ve been playing around with the idea of a pianist or baker - he constantly kneads the air, and looks like he’s playing the piano! Boy from Venus vetoed Steinway, but we are kind of taken with Elton (is it too obvious though?) or Heston [Blumenthal] (owner of the Fat Duck restaurant).
I like kitten X alot. Jupiter maybe? How bout De?..to go with milo
Beautiful kitten. I personally like the name Loki. Kitten X just doesn’t roll off the tongue for me. Also, you are a wonderful photographer. (I peeked at the Morocco pictures–amazing.)
Velcro, that is if he’s stuck on you.
I saw the first two photos and ‘Spock’ came to mind - beats me why.
When I scrolled down and saw his saddle ‘spot’ was obvious, so I’m sticking with Spock.
Oh, I’ve been through the desert
on a Cat with No Name
It was good to get out of the rain
In the desert, you can’t remember your name…
If we can ever have a kitty (Mr. A is allergic), I’m going to name it Merkin. And the other one will be Sporran.
Otherwise, Niko is cute. neek neek!
Twoflower? Or is that too girly?
He is a cutie!
Hmm… Mr. Byuu is a good name, if a bit obscure.
You could always go with “Kitten X”, pronounced, “Kitten the Tenth”.
Someone I met once registered a show dog with the American Kennel Club (or some such agency) under the name “Madame X”, after the painting by John Singer Sargent, only to get the name rejected based on the club’s rules that “numeraled names are not allowed” (all names must be unique, no “jr”, “sr”, “III”, etc.). A scathingly sarcastic letter was penned in reply about how the supposedly highbrow AKC could possibly be so culturally ignorant, blah blah blah, followed by a retraction and permission to use the name after all.
How about saying he’s named X, after X the Owl?
(Oh, and how did poor Milo lose his tail?)
I second giving him a chance to tell you his name. I brought home my beautiful boy and he went nameless for almost a week until one night I was awoken by kitten ear bites and said “Joey, leave me alone! Wait, who is Joey?” Joey is fantastic and I love him completely, even with the occasional ear bite. 
We’re not sure exactly - he was out one warm night (didn’t come back in when it got dark) and then ran in and hid under a chair. This was unusual, and when I picked him up, he hissed, and when I put him down his tail was dragging along the ground. I had a friend who’s cat lost his tail from being run over, so I knew immediately that that was what had happened, so we rushed to the after hours clinid, where the vet diagnosed a cat bite and gave him no pain killers. After 2 days I decided that the vet was wrong, and got him to my cat specialist, who confirmed that a car had run right over his tail - we think he was sitting an a driveway soaking up the warmth and got his tail rolled on. 
Luckily 2 operations later he is happy and pain free, and totally suspicious of the closed door that Mummy and Daddy keep going through, and the strange jingling sounds from behind it. Thinking about introducing them tomorrow as the kit seems to be well and showing no signs of flu.
Shortlist of names (we’re not rushing a name, definately agree that the name will become apparent) are Isaac (saved from death in the nick of time), Jupiter (large spot and bulging through the equator) and Loki.
Jupiter or Barabbas. I’m leaning toward Barabbas, for the same reason as Isaac, but it flows better.
Not Loki. Don’t do that to yourself. The poor guy WILL live up to his name. I named a ferret Loki once and paid for it.
