Chloe (the white calico) and Sophie (the tortie calico).
We picked them up today from the Santa Fe Felines and Friends. They are about 12 weeks old and a joy.
Baxter is taking it all in stride.

Calicos are females. Now that they have been here for almost 6 hours they have quieted down. I hope this can last into the night. Not likely though.

I wasn't aware of that trait, I've only ever had siamese, tabbies or a black/white (like imatheblues 'Dos')
However, at odds with genetics, the cat that roams my house roof in the evening and muddied my car I think is a tortoise shell/calico just like your top photo. He's a male.
I'll try to get a photo to compare better.
not strictly true - calicos need XY chromosomes - ie female as such
but they could be XXY, also female, or XYY, male
I know this because we had an XYY calico cat which we took to the vet and referred to as 'he', no said the vet without looking, its a 'she' - but he wasn't [I can tell the difference ]
after checking, the vet explained about chromosomes
