Female cats are effortlessly cool. They are the embodiment of poise and nonchalance, and everything about them exudes self confidence. So it’s hardly surprising female cats have been the muse of deities, superheroes, art and music, for millennia.
Interestingly, there’s very little tangible evidence that the personality of female cats is at all different from that of male cats.

Choosing Cool Female Cat Names
We hope you have enjoyed these lists of cool female cat names.
If you’re naming a kitten, why not try rotating through a shortlist of your favorite names for a few days, to see which suits her best?
Remember that if your cat will be allowed to roam outdoors during the day, then her name is something you’re likely to have to shout across the yard at dinner time to call her home.
So, make sure it’s something you’ll feel confident and unembarrassed about. Hel was an awesome goddess, but it’s an odd word for your neighbors to hear you calling out the back door at dusk!
Once you’ve settled on a name, say it softly to your cat several times a day, whilst feeding her a few treats.
She’ll quickly learn to come running when you call her!
