The information below is from a web site on pedigreed cats. Here is only a partial list. These are names that could be classified as American registered breeds. Only 2 percent of cats are registered. The advantage of a pedigreed cat is their kittens are more predictable as to how they will mature in size and disposition. There is a wide range of domestic cat names. Many of them are cats that can and do live in the wild too.
I can see a whole line of campers named "American", for example "American Manx". I also like just plain "Manx". The name "Domestic" can be put in front of any cat name, either wild or tame and could reflect the way the camper is fitted out. I like the name "Snowshoe" for a camper designed for winter use. I like the name "Kitten".
If you choose to use any of my suggestion, please keep the wine and share it at one of the Wander the West outings.

All cats are members of the family "Felidea", which split from the other mammals at least 40,000,000 years ago, making it one of the oldest mammalian families. All cats share certain characteristics that are unique to the cat family.
Cats are pure carnivores. They need a high level of protein in their diets - around 30% - and lack the digestive equipment to do well on a diet of grains, fruits or vegetables. They are designed to live from hunting mammals, with powerful jaws, long, sharp teeth, claws that draw back into their paws when not in use, exceptionally acute hearing, and eyes adapted for vision in dim light for hunting just before dawn and just after dusk, the prime hunting periods.
