This is our handsome chap. Hes such a lovely outgoing little boy. What is his colouring and pattern? Does it have an official name? Hes part ragdoll i believe.

I agree, he sure is a handsome little chap! What's his name?
I would describe your kitten as a blue and white domestic shorthair. (Blue is the official term for gray, in cats.) His stripes appear to be "ghost markings" which are very common in blue or black kittens, and tend to fade in adulthood. As an adult, he probably won't have those prominent body stripes, but he may still have some tail stripes.
Most cats are not any particular breed, and are not "mixes" of breeds, unlike dogs. That doesn't make them any less beautiful or special, however! Domestic shorthairs are great cats, and your kitten is gorgeous
