As an “It’s Always Sunny” fan, I’m definitely throwing my vote to Special Agent Jack Bauer… but ebolger asked for your opinions, squee lovers, so please let her know them in the comments!

Copy & paste this:



I’m voting for Chainsaw McScratchy!
As am I! It’s so much cuter than Special Agent Jack Bauer. And they have so many choices for nicknames: Chain, Saw, Scratchy, etc. =3
Check one vote off for Chainsaw McScratchy!
Special Agent Jack Bauer. He needs to be radioactive, though. And a police cat.
and be able to jump out of an exploding car without a scratch on him? lol
I second that notion, or fourth it.
I vote for Dumpster Baby. That was my favorite episode of, “It’s always sunny”.
dumpster baby!!! this is my first choice. and if u refuse- then i vote McScratchy.
Well, what I’d really like to call it is “MINE!” But I guess that’s not what you’re looking for!
Soooooo cute!!!
Aww, man, Linda, you beat me to it.
being a lotr fan, i’d name the cutie gandalf the grey. but that’s just me.
^^ I agree!
As a LOTR fan… I named my kitty Pallando Alastar Istari (or pai). The first two names are the blue wizards and the last word means “wise ones” … that’s just one cat. My other is Harley “cupcake” Quinn.
katie — you stole my cat’s name! (Except her middle/nickname is Fuzzbear.) Does yours have a harlequin face?
Sort of. She’s a calico and is pretty adorable. The orange and black switch places on her ears and upper part of her head. Her face is kinda even, and she has orange splotches that make her look like she got into a bag of Cheetos. Silly.. good name choice, friend!
he looks like a Drizzt to me
I like Chainsaw McScratchy!
How about Mr Puddin’?
Hmmmm…He seems distant and diabolical in planning…I want to call him Vader.
I think Vader would be an adorable name for him. I named my all black cat Eclipse.
He does look evil. I think he needs an appropriately evil name. I say IRS Agent Number 58635.
I vote Azrael
i agree ^
.. I was gonna suggest “Shady”… but Chainsaw McScratchy is awesome choice… ;p
Moccha? No? How about another culture reference: Toothless. Yoru (means “night” in Japanese) or Sera (also “night”..but in Italian).
Cocoa? Choco?

Cocoa? Choco?
Special Agent Jack Bauer!!!!
How about a combo of the two? Special Agent McScratchy??
Whatever you go with, this little guy is totally adorbs!!
How about Special Agent Chainsaw Bauer? Combine both.
omg.. special agent mcscratchy… LOVE IT
Since I’m not sure if this kitty is a boy or girl, here are a few names:
-Boscoe
-Harlequin
-Jinx
-Licorice
-Smudge
-Soot (Sooty)
-Oyasumi (oh-yea-soo-me Japanese for “night”)
-Yoru (yor-oo Japanese for “night”)
they call me … Kitteh..Kitteh BOND I like my milk stirred not shaken
How about Agent Chainsaw Jack McScratchy-Bauer?
Special Agent Chainsaw McScratchy!!!
I have a big beautiful black cat. Name your little darling after mine: Call him Night Train.
look at the eyes…they’re already spooked…totally part of the Bauer clan!
CHARLIE MURPHAY!!!!
LOL – this is awesome!
Kim Jong Meow ^_^
CHAINSAW MCSRATCHY!!!
bete noir
“noire”
How about Severus…..
Definately Snape-y looking. Go for it!
Yes!!! Severus Snape (especially after seeing the second movie and finding out Snape’s real story).
Drizzt is a great name for a black kitty! But out of your choices Jack gets my vote =^_^=
I love Chainsaw McScratchy. I once had a black cat that I named Cute Head. My grandfather always had black dogs and he always called them Black Slacks — how about Special Agent Black Slacks?
How about nightshade?
Jack Bauer!! All the way.
Flavius!
Another idea is Edonil. My ex’s roommate gave that name to a stray she took in because he was black with some light speckles. Edonil is apparently the Elvish word for “Twilight.”
I like this one, it’s unique.
I wonder what the elvish word for “sparkly vampire” is.
it must be “barfonil”
Special Agent Jack Meower!
our big kitty’s name is Meowser…. to much meow going on…. I think Chainsaw is in the lead!!! I also really like “Special Agent McScratchy”
Ahab (cuz of litlol whale in first pic)
it’s a sea turtle…
I’m a fan of long complicated names… I named my two cats Amaterasu and Leonidas!
So I’m going to vote for… Gandalf. name it Gandalf.
How anyone can argue against Chainsaw McScratchy is beyond me…
I think Chainsaw McScratchy is da bomb!
I vote for Dr. Henry McCoy, because he’s totally going to grow up to be a beast ^_^
Another Chainsaw vote here, though I’ve never seen IASIP. It’s just got such a ring to it, right?
I like “Chainsaw”, but can do without the “McScratchy” part (too cute and a little abrasive on the ears). Names that are too long always get shortened anyway… When he gets older and is tearing around the house, Chainsaw will be very appropriate. And, it sounds like a B.A. name for when he’s all grown up: Don’t mess with The Chainsaw!
Yet another Chainsaw vote. The town where the Texas Chainsaw movie was filmed is not too far from me…so, yes, Chainsaw sounds like a winner!

He has the bewitching eyes of Olivia Wilde. I would go for “Thirteen”
looks EXACTLY like my Truffles when she was a babeh soooooo cute!
Chainsaw.
But a suggestion would be Smokey Bear.
Satan’s Little Helper?
Out of your choices I’d vote for Jack Baur.
you could call him Lucifer: good name for a basement cat, and he looks ever so proud of himself in these photos.
Gotta B Mc Scratchy. Don’t bovver wif de chainsaw.
But ifs U want de lot, itz eezyiair 2 showt Mc Scratchy at noms tymez!
My old kitteh went to ceiling cat last week. I will be going to the RSPCA rescue in a couple of week. I just might call da kittteh MacScratchy! loves da name.
I’m sorry for your loss, cg — but bless you for going to the RSPCA for his/her successor!
Thats just happened 2 me 2. I had a gorgeus black and white kitteh called Venus :’( :’( :’( I’m getting a new kitteh tomorrow, and at the moment she’s called Diamond. Or how about Shadow???
To ebolger: Hope this helps, and the cute little fluffball loves his name whatever u choose!!!
‘The Evil’
See K I T T E N…
Sluggy Freelance archives, starting 26 June, 2000.
Bun Bun’s Theater of Horrors
Why not name it something like ; Marbles? Or Astro?
Basement Cat.
If I ever got a cute little black kitty he would forever be known as Basement Cat. Even if s/he was a perfect angel.
I’ve always liked Baron Von Catnip.
he looks like a Rapscallion, and his nick name could be scally or rappy
Chainsaw!!!!
Sushi!
You should name the kitty Bartholemew and mew for short!
It absolutely must be Chainsaw McScratchy, and if you don’t use it that will absolutely be the name of my next cat.
I think you should call the kitten Max! He looks like a Max.
eh, kat? kat is a good name for anything. or ceiling cat. sir barnsdale rebeck the 4th. muffin. something in a different language. moon. detective paws. wolf. predator. hippo. hippo, definetly hippo. you know something with irony, like big foot. or sasquatch. dolly, molly, holly, jolly, name it after your best freind or after its mum/dad then add ‘the 2nd’ on the end.
His mom was actually named “Johnny Cash” and we were going to name him “A Boy Names Sue” but it just wasn’t his personality at ALL!
I used to have a kitty named Chainsaw. He was awesome. He used to come on command.
Ozzy Pawsbourne!
Mine is named Merlin because you can be looking straight at him and never see him.
Well…what about, “Day Man Fighter Of The Nightman”? LOL…from “IASIP”
Indigo!
A friend found a kitten under his car nestled up against his tire. He kept him and named him Speedbump, or Bump for short.
Assuming he’s gonna be “fixed”, you could call him “Sam Spade”.
Uv da two, Chainsaw is da bes. Butz I lerrrrvv “Severus!!”
Dumpster McScratchy!! or Meatball. yes, he looks like a Meatball
lol Meatball. I can just see it now… I turn 30, am walking around with a hunchback and a dopey eye calling my cat “Meatball” people will think I am a crazy old starving lady!
… i have a cat named meatball… i call him meaty…. and walk around calling him such… i’m the crazy cat lady now…
sir scratchy fluffykin!
I see him as a Pete
Chainsaw McScratchy!
(C-Mac for short)
Chainsaw McScratchy!!!
the kitty looks so much like my Riggs did at that age his full name was Det. Martin Riggs
As a fan of Jack Bauer, I’d have to got with Jack Bauer
UPDATE!! After a trip to the vet, and all of your awesome suggestions, we have in fact, decided to go with Chainsaw McScratchy!! Love the suggestions, you guys rock! Ill have to share a pic when he gets bigger!
Spooky Moose
Woot, that’s what I would have gone with too…love the name!!
Special Agent Jack Bauer! Totally! We had a cat who used to just waltz into our apartment to snuggle with our cat so we nicknamed her Agent Jack Bauer!
Don’t like either of those names. Why not try to think of one that references the kitty itself (color or personality) rather than some popular entertainment?
Chainsaw McScratchy represents his personality 100%. And it is in fact, NOT some popular entertainment. but thanks for the downer post.
If you didn’t want to hear what other people thought, you shouldn’t have asked for advice.
As for the Jack Bauer thing, it would have been kind of a “meh” name for that beautiful kitty. I like McScratchy; it was the chainsaw part that I thought was yucky.. as in Texas Chainsaw, Saw, and the like, so my mistake there regarding what was being referenced.
Not sure if anyone mentioned his but that cat looks like a SMUDGE.
So cute <3
Soot/Smut/Fog? ^^
I suggest Sophia, as in Sophia Loren because of those eyes.
?????? those names are kinda wierd. how about Snooky? GAH ive squee’d myself now i need to get a cat and name him Snooky.
I’ll go for the Shadowlurker ^^
This kitten looks like my brother and sis-in-law’s cat. Whom they named Slurms Mackenzie. They call her Slurms. But I like Chainsaw McScratchy.
Special Agent Jack Bauer FTW! And, when this becomes a mouthful in everyday use, you can always call him Jack for short…or Special.
Chainsaw McScratchy!
I like Chainsaw McScratchy, but for some reason the second pic makes me think he’s a Buster or Bailey.
it’s got to be ‘midnight’ surely?
How about Cooper?
I know! I know! Cuddls (it has to spelt dat way!) teh purrderur? Maybe cuddls teh purrdinator? *turns on amp *grabs electric guitar PURRNINATING THE COUNTRY SIDE! PURRNINATING THE PHEASANTS!
Out Of The Two Special Agent Jack Bauer All The Way!!!!! Or Amanda Rose Says Edonil is apparently the Elvish word for “Twilight.” Both Are Great Names One Of This Two Names Will Be Great!!!!!!Edonil I like this one, it’s unique!!! >^~^^~^<
What a sweet little Basement Cat!
either mittens or cornelios
I vote for Cheshire…..:3
