Whatever you end up naming him, just make sure to NOT take him to a performance of The Lieutenant Of Inishmore. It might not be his cup of tea.

And there's always composers and preformers, et-cetera, et-cetera, et-cetera, . . .
And Etcetera!
The naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
When I tell you a Cat must have three different names.
First of all, there's the name that the family use daily,
Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James,
Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey--
All of them sensible everyday names.
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter,
Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames;
Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter--
But all of them sensible everyday names.
But I tell you, a Cat needs a name that's particular,
A name that's peculiar, and more dignified,
Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular,
Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride?
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum,
Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo or Coricopat,
Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum--
Names that never belong to more than one Cat.
But above and beyond there's still one name left over,
And that is the name that you will never guess;
The name that no human research can discover--
But The Cat Himself Knows, and will never confess.
When you notice a Cat in profound meditation,
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
His mind is engaged in rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought,
of the thought of his name:
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular Name.
Is Oregano a truly awful name for a cat?

Black Cats have traditionally thought to be in league with Satan. Since you have that to deal with AND you want a theatrical name, how about "David Merrick"?

Suri.
Apple?
Taye.

I always thought Roadkill would be an adorable name for a cat.
Does the corner of her eye twist like a crooked pin?
That could help.
I always wanted a black cat named Salem. (Sort of reminds me of the witch trials - but I also just like the sound of the name.)
Mamie, are you Melissa Joan Hart?

LOL - I swear I've never seen that show. I still think it's a good name for a black cat.

I actually thought about Salem, but it's pretty lciche for a black cat. I thought maybe ross or Chandler, because my grandmother has a black cat named Joey, but decided that that was just too lame.

Galore....

Have you settled on a name yet?
How about: Kitt
Named for Eartha...
Then it ties in the whole black cat thing and still has creative and cute name.
