[Mercator II]

I am looking to get a kitten, and I have always wanted to call it Gresley but SWMBO doesn't like the idea (don't know why) I have suggested other names but still no luck, so I am throwing it out here for discussion.Names I have already tried:

Edward
Oliver
Henry
George
Arther (got a maybe)
Charles
William
You get the drift, but my fav' is still Gresley, and if I can find a grey one even better!

Any suggestions

spong?

[poliss]

Timothy Hackworth of Rainhill Trials fame. His loco was Sanspareil.

Kain is another good name seeing as it's mine. lol.

Moving side ways, what was Gresleys first name? I know he was always refered as 'Nigel' but I remember reading somewhere that was his middle name.

Other ideas

Hawksworth (dont know his first name)

Churchill

Mansell (again, first name un-known)

Urie (again)

Harris (not the best as next doors son is called Harrison)

More ideas please
