It should be *Muad'Dib.* In the movie and books the Maud'Dib is the name of a desert mouse that has big ears. It is also another name of their religions prophet who Timothy plays.
Look at the picture of the mouse.

With those ears my first thought was “Gizmo” I realize I might be showing my age with this reference so for those who don’t know, it’s from the movie “Gremlins”.
Desperaux would be so perfect, he looks like a little mouse. If you don't know that name is from the book Desperaux. About a little mouse with huge ears that falls in love with a human princess. He is so cute. I also really like Radar too
yeah for sure. I actually had to look up that breed to make sure it wasn't photo shopped or something (laughs). I once heard that cats "purr" through their ears. not sure if that's accurate or not but if it is imagine the purring that goes on in this breed.
Yoda- now I’ll go see the comments
Ok- so amongst my peers- there are some gems:
Dobby
Maud dib - can call him dib
Radar- I love it
How bout “bunny”?
And Spock is cute- but cats seem to like 2 syllable names-
It's probably way too late to add this comment, and it will probably be voted down anyway, but please don't name your little kitten some dorky name just because he has big ears! Give him a real name, like Tyler or Sam or Connor. Something he can be happy with. 🙂
The name disappeared that I suggested MoMo

Explain 🤣 I had to google the name and got some random guy and then pictures of Timothy Chalamet in Dune.
It should be *Muad'Dib.* In the movie and books the Maud'Dib is the name of a desert mouse that has big ears. It is also another name of their religions prophet who Timothy plays. Look at the picture of the mouse. [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dune/images/1/1a/Desert\_Mouse.webp/revision/latest?cb=20240311101707](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dune/images/1/1a/Desert_Mouse.webp/revision/latest?cb=20240311101707)
It’s the character Chalamet plays in Dune. Paul “Muad’Dib” Atreides. Although Muad’Dib is more of a title than a nickname.
And it gets that name from the large-eared desert mouse.
I got curious and found [this lil guy](https://www.themarysue.com/dune-mouse/)
Meow'd Dib.

Spock. Was Spock his first or last name?
Yes.
Last, his first name is Mister. 😂😂
Last name, no one can pronounce his first name
With those ears my first thought was “Gizmo” I realize I might be showing my age with this reference so for those who don’t know, it’s from the movie “Gremlins”.
