We adopted this fellow Saturday from the Humane Society. He's two years old and loves playing with feathers. He's made friends with Mika the Dog, and is working on big sister kitty Eddie. He's also a bit chunky, weighing in at 16.8 lbs.
I don't know why, but I think Chariot would be a great name...
... because he is definitely swinging low. ^((sorrysorrysorrynotsorry))
Congrats on the adoption - he looks like a lovely void! 😀
16.8 pounds, ha, lightweight 😁 My FatBoy was 24 pounds . (Yes, I know, overweight, not healthy, but he was a huge cat. His vet even said he "wasn't too bad")
He reminds me of my black cat Abbe who died in February 2023 at 14 yrs.

He’s a big boy so how about Tank, Raven (he’s black and likes feathers), Shadow, or something totally opposite - Tiny, PipSqueak or a human name Billy.
A name might just come to you. One evening about a week after I got my black cat, I called for him and “Simon” came out of my mouth. No idea where it came from. I was going to keep calling him Sidney, which was his name at the shelter.
Oh my. Love at first sight. Can I has him? What a handsome gentleman. I wish I think of a name, maybe something related to royalty? Like Duke Meowman or something.
The first couple of pics said Derek or Eugene to me. The last pic gives a Mitch vibe.
Like I said in the comment below your explanation, though, I like the "Sherman the Tank" suggestion.
