350+ Unique Cat Names for Your One-of-a-Kind Cat
Finding a name that fits your cat's unique personality can be a creative challenge. How do you capture your pet's one-of-a-kind attitude (cattitude, if you will), with a name? And your kitty's name is not only about your cat. What you choose to name your cat can also be a statement about your own personality and creativity.
Take advantage of this opportunity to find a unique cat name for your feline friend. An ironic, clever, or sassy name will make people do a double-take—or at least appreciate your (and your kitty's) individuality.
The possibilities, of course, are limitless but consider your cat's personality as a starting point.
- Is she 100-percent diva? Who is a famous female with a similar reputation?
- Is she more Lizzo or Liz Taylor?
- Does he take on the world like a total badass? Maybe he should have a name like Tyson or Kobe.
- Does she give you sass with every look and have a precocious attitude? Sassy or Scout might be a perfect name!
- Does he or she have a majestic, regal air? Consider naming your cat after a monarch (historical or modern, real, or fictional) such as Louis, Marie, George, Elizabeth, or Cersei, Joffrey, Lady McBeth.
Enjoy the journey to landing on a name that fits your one-in-a-million feline and his or her individual charisma. Here's a list of 350+ unique cat names to help get you started.
