Winston was abandoned by a neighbor. We used to call him "black kitty" or "BK" for obvious reasons. But it just didn't fit him. He's missing one of his cainine teeth so I almost named him Elvis because he had that lip thing going on. Still didn't fit. My old boss had a black cat called Winston. It fit my little buddy, too. He was so regal and pristine looking. Sir Winston was perfect for my boy. If he could speak, he'd have a Brittish accent. Nicknames - WinSTON turned into WinSTONE, then Stone and Stoney or Stones. When he got sick, I called him Boo Boo. Cuz he had a boo boo inside his tummy.
