Well, general immigration isn't open yet, so you can't even get him  
in for a while...

Cato sounds fine to me.  As long as it is a word (ie, it's not  
something dumb like |-|3r3t1X), it doesn't mean anything non-name-ish  
in English, it doesn't mean anything rude or stupid in English, and  
it doesn't mean anything rude in any other language you speak,  
chances are it'll be fine.
