Does he have any unusual characteristics? Is there a name that would just be fun to say? How about "Clovis," the hero cat in a Stephen King story?

max I and max II, but i feel like he deserves his own name.

churchill popped in my mind, but i'm not sure that the husband will go for it. i'm not too stressed about it right now, but he can't be mister forever.

I like BoBo or Weezer. But then again, I kinda gravitate toward goofy names. My dog's name is Izzie, but I call her noodles or numnum. I rarely ever call her Izzie.
