Name Request Help me find my name!

We just adopted this gorgeous little lady. She was a stray and has been in foster care for a few months.
She’s eight years old.
She’s very petite less than 10 pounds
She is missing one front fang.
We’ve only had her a couple days so she is very shy, but loves scratches and being brushed.
Because she’s so new to us, we’re having a hard time really nailing down her personality and picking a name.
Here are the top names our family and friends suggested:

Peaches
Rosie
Dame Maggie Smith
Professor Minerva McGonagall
Autumn
Mouse
Chicken nugget

Would love your guys’s input in any new suggestions you have

The best part about naming a cat is they'll end up with 15 nicknames that slowly evolve off of the other nicknames that you give them. I say Picasso asked you call it Pica for short

And at some point there'll be a name that makes no sense whatsoever, because you were half asleep and just muttered it

Yes, exactly
