For a male: The Shadow. (As in the old radio plays so it needs The in front.) For a female Freya (I don't have a reason)
Tho on thinking about it I like Dorian Gray and it would work for male or female pilgrims.

This should work. 'Phantom' would be my suggestion.

Thanks, olly--I couldn't get to the picture in the OP.
I offer Furty--a combination of furry and furtive. That one is definitely going to be up to no good!

Morning Birrell, your link did not come out completey well, but by using the Quote button and taking the link out to the browser I saw your kitten. Cute, it looks a lot darker than grey though. I would call it Smoky, get another one with it and call it Bandit.( that's wat kittens are anyway)

You've got to get to know the cat. Listen. Watch. The cat will tell you its name.

We keep drifting towards words about smoke, because his color is like very dark smoke, and is lighter on his belly. I wonder if people know words for smoke in obscure languages? (We have the fum/hum - family from Romance...)

(We have the fum/hum - family from Romance...) i dont know if a language with more than 300 million speakers is obscure but one not very common hindi adjective for 'smoky' is सधूम - sadhoom. as a lover of cats and science fiction this word makes me think of the home of the shadows in the series babylon 5 a place called Z'ha'dum. it seems appropriate for a familiar.
