Creative Cat Names

Looking for some creative cat names for your new cat? – well, you have come to the right place.

One of life’s great pleasures is coming home with a new, often furry, playful little kitten, but now you face the dilemma of what to call him or her. You need a name that you like and one that you think fits your new companion.

When choosing a creative name think of subjects that interest you perhaps science, gardening, music, computers, nightlife, famous people, memorable or beautiful locations, hobbies, and pastimes, or historic events. These are often great sources of inspiration for those perfect cat names.

Cats have distinctive personalities and colors/markings. Perhaps these can inspire you to think of a creative name that fits your new feline friend.

Also, remember that cats can live for twenty or more years so you may want to think twice about a trendy name that might appear somewhat dated further down the road.

When you have chosen a name, say it out loud – you should feel comfortable calling the name. You might want to consider names that are only one or two syllables long or if you do decide on a long complicated name ensure that you also have a shortened form that you can use the majority of the time.

From this section of the website, my intention is to showcase creative ideas for cat names.

I have also included a section for your own submissions to the web site.

Simply go to the section at the bottom of this page and enter your creative cat names and then if you can please take a photo of your cat or cats and upload that into the submission.

Please feel free to add any story or some background related to why you chose the names.
