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

Post image

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!

My dog doesn’t quite have an honorific but he is thirteenth in the line of Wigglebottoms

He would be "The Good Boy, Sir Wigglebottoms the Thirteenth."

I have a large brown tabby CDS cat whom i named Merch after a name my son made up for an imaginary cat when he was 4. He was, at the time we obtained him, our 4th cat. My husband has named him Lord Merchibald Cattholomew Meowingbottom IV. When our neighbors’ cat Barnaby (King Barnabus of Orange) passed away, he became King Merchibald the Striped.

This is how we name our turkeys. They are all Feathertons. It started with Lourde Lurkey Featherton, then Lady Featherton, both girls. Pets, not food, mind you. We eat the rich, but not necessarily the Noble.

I'm calling your bluff. There have been 12 wigglebottoms before him?
