And the winner is PHOENIX. Thanks for all the suggestions.

He is doing just great. Tearing up the house and chasing all the other cats
driving them nuts. Still sneezes a lot though. I have a followup vet appt for
the 29th of this month. I'll watch and see what happens in the mean time.

Did the cat choose the name?

Did you choose your name??

That wasn't the point. The cat is the one who has to live with the name.
Humans seem to have a lot of choices. With my cat Isis I had a list of names
for her when I adopted her. I told her the names I had and asked her which
one she liked. She seemed to like and respond to Isis. You might want to
give this a try and not think too human.

HUH?. You asked the Cat???????????

OK. When I get home from work the first thing I will do is ask the kitten if he
likes his new name. Its not gonna work though. I know he is going to be much
more interested in eating. If you could though give me a call on the phone and
I'll let you discuss this with the kitten.

Yes. I actually asked the cat. Once again I will state that I had a whole
list of names for Isis and she chose her name and even told her the names I
had. She responded to Isis.

My cats never cared what you called them so long as you did not call
them late for dinner.  The names usually ended up only as entries on the
veterinarian's charts and the cats became "the big boy", "the little
girl", etc.  The only one that really earned a name was "Horrible",
who constantly squabbled with the others.

My cats pretty much 'name' themselves.  I just watch them and pretty
soon their own personalities or unique physical traits show
themselves, and then we have a name!  It seems to work, at least the
cats haven't complained!
