14 Creative Names For Your New Cat
Have you adopted a kitten and do not know what name to baptize it? Today we will suggest various creative names that can help you make the right decision. Finding a cute, original name that fits a new pet’s personality can be quite difficult. Read on to discover the most original names to give to a cat.
Creative names for female cats
You must know that a cat (male or female that is), will take about 10 days to react to the name that has been given to it. This is why it is good to repeat it to him immediately several times, looking him in the eye, so that he understands that you are referring to him. We also recommend that you choose a short name that is easy to interpret. If your cat is a sissy, you can choose from the following creative names:
1. Alka
In Hebrew it means “pretty” … just like the beautiful cat that has just entered your life. Instead of calling it “carina” in Italian, opt for a word in another language that has the meaning you want.
2. Felicia
If after a few days of her arrival your kitty has turned out to be a very naughty and a glutton, then Felicia could be the ideal name for her. This is in fact the name of the kitten in charge of devouring the enemies of Professor Rattigan, the antagonist of the Disney film Basil the Detective .
3. Freyja
This is the perfect name for a sweet and affectionate kitten. Freyja was a goddess of Norse mythology revered for her powers related to love and female fertility.
4. Zula
In reality it is the name of a very small town in the heart of Eritrea, but it remains a very nice name to give to a cat. Plus it’s short and catchy!
5. Fiona
Do you remember the Princess of the Shrek Film ? Just her, the heroine who transforms herself into a green ogress to be at the side of her beloved. A suitable name for a cat with a strong and slightly chubby character.
6. Duchess
Here is another perfect name if you are a lover of cartoons, especially those a little older. If you have seen The Aristocats, you will know that Duchess was the name of the beautiful white cat mother of three puppies and who lived in the villa of a retired opera singer.
7. Cersei
Is your cat reddish and green-eyed, very pretty and a little naughty? Then the perfect name for her could be taken from the TV series Game of Thrones, more precisely in honor of Cersei Lannister, the ambitious wife of King Baratheon.
Naming ideas for male cats
If you have taken a male cat and want to find the most suitable name based on its physical characteristics and personality, but without leaving aside originality, here are some ideas for you:
1. Ali
Let’s start with a name of Arabic origins meaning “sublime”, ideal for a cat that you consider unique and special in your life.
2. Figaro
This is the name of Mastro Geppetto’s cat in the movie Pinocchio , and you surely remember him. His friends were a fish (Cleo) and a cricket. Figaro also makes an appearance in other Disney works.
3. Hasan
Here is another interesting Arabic name for a feline. It means “good” and is therefore suitable for the most peaceful, affectionate and good company cats.
4. Dago
A Spanish origin name that derives from “Diego” and proves to be a great option as it has only two syllables and is easy to say. Dago means “wise”, “educated”.
5. Sheldon
Have you ever seen The Big Bang Theory TV series ? Then you know very well that Sheldon is the perfect name for an unsociable and somewhat whining cat.
6. Mambo
If you’ve never seen a restless and playful animal like your cat, then Mambo is the name for you. Just like the Cuban-born musical genre it refers to, your puppy will definitely make you dance – and not always with happiness.
7. Cheshire Cat
It is the name of a character from the novel Alice in Wonderland , the bizarre cat capable of disappearing or appearing at will. If your cat has the particular “gift” of hiding and disappearing every three by two, don’t hesitate to call him Cheshire Cat or Cheshire Cat, according to the original version of the work.
How did you like these original creative names for your new cat or cat? Always remember not to choose a name at random since, according to the saying, the name marks the personality and the destiny of a creature.
