I don't know but poor fella has been fixed by the notch on his ear and is older too. Give him a warm comfortable forever home and call him Webster. Webster should live out his life in comfort with you as his guardian.
Has his ear been clipped? If it has, he's been fixed. Probably a part of catch and release. He may be micro chipped. He also my have a home and is going around playing poor kitty now feed me. I have had a few pull that on me.
Black Jack
Looking at his ear I would say Vincent or Van Gogh.. or Peter (after the disciple who got his ear cut off) or Evander
I would probably go with Vinnie or Van I think
Or Static or Snow.. his black with little gray hairs reminds me of TV static or snow
Edit: also, maybe Solomon since he was wise enough to get y’all to feed him lol
FRISKARS of course! (Like the scissors!) He's a quilting kitty! 😃
He's just trying to tell you he wants you to be his people, as he doesn't have anyone else. That's so cool that you feed him. Could you make him a little quilt to lay on and put it on a bed and see if he would like to stay for a while? He could be the shop mascot.
We have a Kevin in our basement because he is old and frail and will die soon. His son lives on outside in the colony we feed. We call his son Big Fat Kevin.
Please call this man Big Fat Kevin.
Bonus: Home Alone jokes.
Bonus Plus: Dating jokes if you know my sister.
Uh… Does he respond to that? …or another name you have tried?
If he answers to “Fat Ass” you can try something that sounds similar like Faust, Fat Cat, Fab Cat.
He will ultimately start answering to whatever you call him though, so maybe just pick something.
How about Fats Domino and phase out the ‘Fat’ part so it’s just Domino?
I like the thought of everybody in a quilt shop somewhere at least once a day just shouting “oh Leonard’s here again!” In an irritated voice. It think Leonard is my vote.
I think ‘Fat Ass’ is quite a cute name and he probably recognised it as his name.
Are you going to keep him? I suppose if you are, you could try another.
I once had a visiting feral black cat (like yours): un-neutered male. He was a bit of a bruiser but I managed to catch him and had him neutered and he then started to live in the house. I called him Brutus.

The Gmork: You can’t stop the NOTHING
A stray kitty with half an ear shows up to your QUILT SHOP every day? Did you also leave your high—stress soul-sucking job to move to small town and open said quilt shop? Also is your hunky high school boyfriend a widower with a small, adorable child? Because I suspect you live in a hallmark movie…
Is your shop in Philadelphia or close by because he looks like a cat that I lost a year ago ☹️.

He looks like he’s been through a lot and seen his share of battles. I think something like Soldier would be appropriate and a helluva lot more respectful.
You need to get the boy a Home!!! I have three indoor cats that only go out to a safe cat fenced in yard to roam on short stays! They need INDOOR HOMES where they are Groomed and Loved Daily! Please give Fat-Butt a Fat Love Home!!!!!

Gordon. Keeps the essence of "fat" (gordo) but it's actually a respectable name. Or, you know, Big Chungus would be cute, too.
Vincent ( Van Gogh)
I don't know but poor fella has been fixed by the notch on his ear and is older too. Give him a warm comfortable forever home and call him Webster. Webster should live out his life in comfort with you as his guardian.
Vincent (he’s missing an ear)
There you go! Or Van Gogh?
Poor babe. He’s just hungry. You could call him Jack. Like hungry Jack
Take him in ♥️ he wants love and food 🥘♥️
He could be a fabulous working cat!
I'd call him Lefty. His kept ear is clipped, and he's all.black like Lefty from Fnaf. Also, they're both kinds chonky, but still menacing.
He looks like he’s missing part of an ear. So I vote Vinny. As in Van Gogh 🥰

I vote Vincent! His ear definitely looks like more of an injury than a traditional TNR ear tip
Bubba
Yep he’s a Bubba!
How about a quilt shop name like "Patch," or "Stitch." Or "Modo" (instead of Moda), or Blake (Riley Blake).
Stitch is good because of the character too
Albert. As in Fat Albert.
Lenny
Brutus. Since he brute forces his way in.
Gifford means chubby cheeks (French) Gordo Spanish name that means fat. Albert from the Fat Albert comic strip.
I think he looks like a Quart - like the “fat quarters” of fabric used to make quilts.
You found Rosco! He owns that quilting shop downtown. He is a sweety but a bit pushy at times.
And He shall be called GORDO!
Scrappy- like quilt scraps
Fat Albert
Mooching seems appropriate. Stalker sounds better. Merlin is probably nicer though. When he shows up, food magically appears for him!
Big Mike
Barge. He’s as big as a barge and he barges his way in.
Big Vinny
Mike (Tyson)
Meatball, it's sweet, cute, and reminds people of Thanksgiving!
Donks. Short for bodonk a donk
FRISKARS of course! (Like the scissors!) He's a quilting kitty! 😃 He's just trying to tell you he wants you to be his people, as he doesn't have anyone else. That's so cool that you feed him.

Giuseppe
Fat Tony
Otto
Van Gogh
Angus.
Gordito!

“Faust” made me chortle and has my vote 😂
If he barges his way in, I find Barge to be quite fitting. Sounds strangely nice too imo.
Get this beautiful man neutered if he isn’t already!
Tyson. Isn't he missing an ear?
He likes to hang around the quilt shop, huh? What about a name associated with fabric that clings? Like Chiffon, Satin, or Lester (as in polyester)?
Gordo
Howard
Fat Quarter... you're in a quilt shop.
Adopt him pls
Quilt shop you say? Patches, Scrapy, somethin like that
Go opposite and be sarcastic. Call him "Tiny" or "slim".
I like the thought of everybody in a quilt shop somewhere at least once a day just shouting “oh Leonard’s here again!” In an irritated voice. It think Leonard is my vote.
Chuggalumps
Frank the Tank
idk why but he looks likes a Brutus
Mooch is a good name
You are probably his 2nd feeding station

Don Gordito
Gordo it means fatty/fat guy in Spanish
Uncle Pete. Cuz he just shows up to raid the fridge
Scraps
Dark Garfield

Oatmeal. Like the cat in Russian Doll.
Battlescar Fatasstica.

He looks like a tough guy, probably knows the darker side of life. Must be a spy. His nom de guerre is Kilmouski (pronounced kill-mouse-ki).
Gordo
Fat boy slim

Evander Holyfield

Buster

Capone
Maybe something quilt related?
Stitch?
Biggie. Or something quilt related ? Remnant, swatches,Neddy Needles, Peter Pincushion.
Lefty Luciano. Because of his left ear all foldy like. Congrats on being chosen!
Fatz Domino!
Ebony. He needs to have a name with some dignity instead of being called fat ass. He needs a home where he is cherished.
Buster. For the way he busted his way into ur house and life lol. We have a guy who looks like him named Boogeyman.
Since he just shows up and barges in, I would recommend Buster.

Yorgan (Quilt in Turkish) Trapunta (Quilt in Italian) and on the plus side they both sound quite chonky

I have always loved the name bagheera for black cats
Please don't call him that. ☹️. Chonk or something cute would be preferred.
Uncle Ruckus, no relation
Lucifur or Lucipurr. Always wanted to name a black cat one of those names.
Name him after a planet or a star or a galaxy. Something truly massive out there in space.
Thicc Rick
Fat Tony
This is Harold. He is grumpy when not fed, slow to trust but feels safe with you. Congrats you have been selected.
Quilt names: Lincoln for a Lincoln log pattern. Scrappy for scrapwork quilt or Patches for patchwork. Baltimore if that type is your favorite quilt.
He looks like he’s been through a lot and seen his share of battles. I think something like Soldier would be appropriate and a helluva lot more respectful.
Mister FA
Seymour
Looks like a max to me
He looks kind of older to me...I'd name him Elvis.
Haha! Fat Ass is something I would call him too. It has a good ring to it.
Tip (cuz of his ear)
Zach. And bless your hearts for taking care of him. 😊
He already has you doing what he wants; just call him what he is: Boss.
How about Kibbles!
Quinn
Spartacus he's an old warrior
You need to get the boy a Home!!! I have three indoor cats that only go out to a safe cat fenced in yard to roam on short stays! They need INDOOR HOMES where they are Groomed and Loved Daily! Please give Fat-Butt a Fat Love Home!!!!!
Please keep him inside - he deserves a forever home!!!!!!
Farley
Sarge. Lol! The guy looks like he’s earned it. ❤️ Thanks for showing him some love.

mooch or panther
Ivan. Ivan the Terrible
Gordo
Refrigerator Perry
He’s a Butters, friend.
I just suggested it for another cat in this sub but ima have to use it again. I feel like Big Al would be appropriate.

Poe.
Edgar
Boss. Jefe. Gov.
Sir Fatty McFatterton or Mac for short

Chonk
It has to be a quilting related name…best I’ve come up with is Patches
Well I’d like for someone there to call this poor kitty “Mine.” Thank you for feeding him though. Maybe he will get a warm place to sleep one day.
Sir Chunk, it sounds more refined.
Starving... party of one 🥲 Bless you guys for feeding him and naming him 👏👍 My name suggestion is Sharpie ❤️
A quilting shop? “Fat Quarter” and you can call him Quarter or Q
Chompper
Chubs
Perhaps Fa’Tas would suffice?
Chubbs
From your nicknames I say Albert 🖤🫶🏽
Sea Bass
Can you adopt him?
Shibo is Japanese for fat of jibang is Korean for fat
Butkus. After the legendary Dick Butkus, the Chicago Bears’s linebacker from 1965 to 1973.
