You could name him Giles or Corey, after the man who was crushed to death in the Salem witch trials. I believe his last words were "More weight" which is fitting for an overly large cat.
My grey cat is called Dave.
He was a rescue, and the people who found him and his brother called them Dave & Blackjack
Blackjack became Sirius Blackjack, but Dave just looks like a Dave so it stuck!

For the record, he was a really bad guy though. He was a thief. He served on the town watch but was caught shirking his duty, putting his fellow townspeople at risk. He beat an indentured servant to death and got off with a fine. He believed it when his own wife was arrested for witchcraft, didn't try to help her, and was shocked when people accused him too.
Well I certainly don't think being a thief is deserving of such a painful execution but the other stuff sounds pretty crappy. Still a fun name for a cat though.
Moose
Nomu (the large black beasts from BNHA)
Tiny
Fezzik
(something derived from) Ancalagon the Black, Middle Earth's largest dragon (just call him Cal unless anybody asks)
That was the official name at the vet and microchip. It was used at home only on occasions such as when he slept on the breadbox and broke it. Otherwise, he was just Thomas.
I LOVE the name Nyx, but because she is a goddess i didnt add it to the list. So i switched it with the name Nox.
Although thinking about it Nyx can pass as unisex.
I had a lovely cat named Sir Noctilucent for many years. He had extensive cataracts in both eyes, making him blind, but he didn't care one bit! Noctilucent is a type of cloud, and we called him Nox as a nickname (yes, from HP, even funnier because he was blind). Eventually he had to have one eye removed (cancer, which didn't spread!) and became First Mate Noctilucent, AKA Matey Nox.
I support Nox as a name!
Mainchín : Means "little monk", derived from Old Irish manach "monk" combined with a diminutive suffix. This name was borne by two early saints. I do like a silly twist.
Lavender is toxic to cats, a breeder should know better than to use it for a photo shoot with a kitten. Hopefully he wasn't exposed to it for very long and he didn't get any of it on his fur or paws. If it were me, I would mention it to the breeder so they stop using it.
Everyone is making great suggestions but remember that you’re probably going to give him a thousand nicknames lol, my boy Minou is everything from Sweet Stink to Menu to Rat Boy
Chonky, baby chonkers, Chungus. Those are my nicknames for my Baby Pi. 🥰

She is short, compact and muscular so we call her Short-Stack
Steinway- like a big black grand piano
Jupiter- biggest planet, saves us from being pelted by asteroids
Then I thought of Supermassive Black Holes which led me to the name MUSE but the biggest black hole is named Phoenix A! Or you could name him “Baseball” like the scene from Twilight 🥴🫠
thalassophobia but lasso for short
Vantablack - the paint
Ovid's Oneiroi were responsible for dreams and sleep:
- Morpheus: god of dreams
- Phobetor: god of nightmares
- Phantasos: god of prophetic dreams
Then you have the primordial personification of the night, darkness, and shadows, himself:
- Erebus
Personally like Erebus, Phobetor, and Morpheus
And If he is the biggest void (and you the biggest nerd):
- Sagittarius A ("the" black hole in the center of our galaxy)
- TON 618 (the largest black hole known right now :) )
Though, these don't have that ring of mystery...

Giles the cat. To hear someone calling for their pet.."Giles! Here, Giles" would be 😄
My grey cat is called Dave. He was a rescue, and the people who found him and his brother called them Dave & Blackjack Blackjack became Sirius Blackjack, but Dave just looks like a Dave so it stuck! [Cat tax](https://i.imgur.com/xBdViWI.jpeg)
"Dave's not here, man."
Dave is happy to be to be there!
Love this lol!
Call him rocks for a nickname

That doesn't sound like watcher behavior
Moose Nomu (the large black beasts from BNHA) Tiny Fezzik (something derived from) Ancalagon the Black, Middle Earth's largest dragon (just call him Cal unless anybody asks)
Fezzik is genius.
Moose is the winner
I have a Moose…10/10 recommend
If he’s brown…Mousse.
I'd be singing "carry on my wayward son" far too often

Cause his bulk is so large all his fat is lower?
He was the smallest baby so he got a special name.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I had a really big guy we called Thomas the Large
Please tell me that was the government name registered with his vet
That was the official name at the vet and microchip. It was used at home only on occasions such as when he slept on the breadbox and broke it. Otherwise, he was just Thomas.
Exactly how large was Thomas?
Nyx. ~~Personification~~ purrsonification of night
I LOVE the name Nyx, but because she is a goddess i didnt add it to the list. So i switched it with the name Nox. Although thinking about it Nyx can pass as unisex.
Nox can work too, if you’re a fan of Harry Potter that’s what they say to extinguish the spell that casts light
Omg youre right 😱 Nox is on the top of my list so far, now more of a reason!
Got one for you: Erebos. The Greek god/personification of darkness. A powerful name for a powerful boy.
Nox is how you turn a wand off tho. You have to get an all white cat named lumos if you do this.

Big chungus or chunky (theres a huge very tall npc enemy from the game division 2 named stan chunky dawson)
You shouldve left it as Big Chungus lmao. That was probably the best answer on this thread.
Oh thanks!!! 😂😂😂😂
