You mean, it's not biting you but it's kind of nibbling? It's playing with you. If you don't like it then put your finger down there when he's nibbling on it (not too far or anything, just a little bit).
Cats are not always "trainable" but they can usually take a hint.
yes the word is nibbling.
he is a nibbling fiend at this point. but he is getting the hint a bit. though it sucks a bit when he nibbles my beard.
think we are leaning towards Sigmound at this point for a name
Nibbling is definitely an age thing, as long as it's not biting. If you dislike it, or if he gets rough, hiss at him (seriously). He'll very likely stop and either lick where he was biting (as if to say "oh sorry sorry here all better") or he'll just stop. But he will most likely outgrow it, especially if he's young enough to be teething (which he might be).
Technically, unless he's pedigreed, he's "just a cat" or a DLH (domestic long hair, since he looks pretty poofy in the picture). His coloration is called "blue point with white," the blue point is because that's what gray is called (it's a sort of slate blue on cats, and different from silver/gray), and "with white" describes the paws and nose/chin. White coloration is pretty interesting on cats because of how it "wraps" around cats, but he's just got a little white. As a point of comparison, here's my blue point balinese (traditional).
you can see how the pointing covers the entire paw -- that's what makes Sigmound a "with white." His mittens are an easy clue, but as he gets darker he'll probably have more white patches that show up, which should give him a pretty interesting coat pattern
He he he seriously though I vote Kiki or Chairman Meow. If I ever get a kitty his/her name will be either Vladimir Poopin or another awesome name already suggested in this thread: My Attorney. It's oh-so clever!

No, this is what a Rupert looks like.
I always tell myself that if I ever get a cat I'm going to name it Chairman Meow.

I second the Chairman Meow name as well. I heard it somewhere a long time back, and even though it's probably been done to death, I still love it.
"Has anyone seen the Chairman? Mr. Chairman! Get down from that counter right now!"
He's fluffy, but I don't think he's fluffy enough to be a long hair.
I have a short hair and a medium..the difference is incredible. Both still shed like it's going out of style though...little fuzzy pricks.

So we decided on his name.
Lord Sigmound Nigel Killingsworth III, or SIgmound or Sig for short
hows abouts ziggy?
have some more 2 weeks post bringing home kitten
Clara the dog and Sig the kitten seem to be getting along
they enjoy being lazy but get into arguements over stealing the covers
So sig will leave for the floor
or play some Wii
But maybe he tries to be Clara a little too much
Though it doesn't help with the indignities of a crazy pet owner
no respect for the noble kitten

I hear Ethan's a cool name too <.<
