It has to be Orlando for one, I just loved that book as a child.  Orlando the marmalade cat, wish I had kept the book. Not sure about the smaller one.

Fred and Ginger

Marmalade and Jampot

Percy and Toby

Or how about tried and trusted veggie names like Carrots and Parnip..I like these two actually.

Dandelion and Dock

Dickens and Shakespeare or Chaucer

Before you choose one try calling it out over and over...saves embarrassment later and also finds out if it turns into a tongue twister.

Hi Kea. you are right there ,I had a lovely little cat called Dixie. when I called her in at night I shortened her name to Dix , my sister lived next door but one to me, and one day she said I wish you would call the cat by her full name when you call her in at night, not stand by the back door and call the cat by her shortened name, I will leave you to work it out .
Hope I have not offended anyone with my post , if I have, I am sorry
   Lol June.

Thankyou all for your suggestions. There were some real corkers in there.We have decided to stick with the names that the foster mum gave them Freddie and George.
I just couldn't imagine myself standing outside the shed shouting for Ace and Corny as was suggested by someone on here ;D
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

When I was in a student house, our cat was inherited from the last renters and her name was ... Fanny.
My flatmate used to delight in standing on the back step hollering "Where's my fanny???"...
Ah memories...
She was a lovely cat though and ended up on a small farm when we all left the house. I dunno if they kept the name!

Reminds me of the time we had a tarantula, that too was called Fanny. My 6 year son took it to school in its glass cage for the 'show and tell' at assembly. When the teacher asked why it was called Fanny he answered 'because my dad says because it is big, black and hairy' ;D.

We were told about this from one of the dinner ladies who said there was a stunned silence around the hall and OK now on to Arthurs ferret, whats his name 'Dick', Toms at home and Harry died. Thank god for that said the teacher. Arthur was not amused.
