Stuck on a Name

Loque'nahak is already named Dante, but I don't really like it. I'm trying to think of something that has to do with felines and fire, since he looks more fiery to me than icy. I think of blue flame, which is the super-hot (and I think purer) form of flame. Anyway, I'm coming up with nothing. I am open to suggestions but am not really into combo names or silly names. I prefer something that has a meaning, whether in lore or myth or otherwise, involving either a cat or flame, or preferably both. He is also male, so I prefer more masuline-sounding names. If all else fails I will just leave his name the way it is.
Thanks guys

Damn. If he wasn't male, I'd suggest Azula. xD

Trust me, I thought of that already. I love that show! Actually I was about to name him Sozin but my brother said that was weird. My train of thought:
blue fire-->Azula-->Azulon-->ancestors-->Sozin-->Sozin's Comet
I figured since the comet gave the firebenders greater power, and I think of power when I see a spirit beast (plus the whole fire thing).......ok so the way I relate it all might be strange but I still thought it was a nice name! lol, but then my brother smashes that idea into tiny bits and I'm back to square one.

Avatards unite! >>'
I think Sozen is a fine name, and you're reasoning behind it is valid. Plus, because it has a personal connection with you, it's even better! But, if you've already discarded it in your mind, there are still plenty of great fire names to pull from Avatar. Zhao, Roku, Ozai...
Maybe Iroh? Who can't love the bundle of Uncle awesome? He knows how to channel the blue fire/electricity!

Or, if you wanted to put a bit of a twist on it, Mako? The name of Iroh's original voice actor?

Yea we kinda got a bit carried away lol, however I really think Sozin your original idea was really good! Dont let your brother tell you its stupid its your pet not his and if YOU like it thats all that matters

I'm going with Roku - I don't know why I didn't think of it before! He's the more benevolent being from the Fire Nation (as opposed to Sozin), and is the maternal great-grandfather to Zuko and Azula. Plus he was the avatar previously, so he was super-powerful. Woot!!! Thanks for everyone's help!

Roku fits very well with Loque. Excellent choice! ;D
