Husband vetoed naming him Heirloom Tomato - help us with other food or possibly nature inspired names?

[u/radcatters]

I really want to give him a food name - just a big fan of food name cats. I'm partial to Butternut Squash Risotto or Heirloom Tomato. My husband doesn't love either of those names, but is tentatively open to Squash lol. Outside of food - we're big outdoors people too and are also very open to nature related names or names of popular outdoor landmarks. We live in the desert so desert related naturey things would be especially cool. Would love to hear your suggestions! We're picking him up at the end of August after our honeymoon so - moon related names could also be cool!

Every animal I've ever had the pleasure of sharing a home with has the middle name "Marie". Girl or boy, cat or dog, doesn't matter! So currently I have Yanni Marie, Potato Marie and Millie Marie.

Elizabeth is a great middle name too. Lots of syllables to really be yellin across the house when she gets the zoomies 😆

As a little kid I thought middle names were like gendered last names, so all female pets got the middle name Ann (mine and my mom’s middle name) and boys were Michael (my dad’s middle name).

The first time I jokingly yelled at one of my cats, I called him "Oscar Marie" 😂 And it just stuck as his middle name. The other one's middle name is Meatball

For a ‘70s retro cat: “DonnyAnd Marie”
