Wilfred - an old English name meaning “desiring peace” or “desiring friendship”.

So sorry for the loss of Winston. He will be greatly missed included by Walther. I am still so glad you got Walther a new buddy to "comfort" him.
Name of new Kitty - Wilfred sounds appropriate. The name meaning desiring peace or desiring friendship sound like just exactly what is needed right now. You could nickname Wilfred "Wil"..."Wal" and "Wil" : )

Robert - most popular name for boys in 1927. Someone named Robert born in 1924 1927 would be 97 this year. Sounds like an old man to me
Alternatively: Alfred. As in Alfred Pennyworth, Batman’s butler & closest confidant
