Perhaps you would love to pick a name to match her beautiful coat of fur?

Unique Female Cat Names
Funnily enough, one of the top internet searches for female cat names is ‘unique’. It’s not unusual to want to be different.
Fortunately, there are some great ways you can come up with more out of the box ideas.
When I’m trying to name my pets in a unique way I think of a topic not normally associated with pet names. Human surnames, or names that are out of fashion. Architectural features, unusual names from fiction – even household objects.
Or try to think laterally – like my daughter clearly did when she named her guinea pig “Hedgehog”.
Traditionally female names are by their nature feminine. But don’t be afraid to pick something more traditionally masculine when you are looking to be a bit different (or at any other time to be fair!)
Here is a fun selection of slightly random ideas. You might come across someone with the same idea once in a blue moon, but they are still pretty unique female cat names.

I Had two Black and White kittens and I named them Piano and Adeli <3
I love the name Piano!
OREO is my fav for black and white kitty. So fitting”.
I agree.
They did put oreo?
I like Oreo too but what would be good for a black and white female? Cookie?

I will be getting a female black and white kitten very soon. I’m kind of stuck on Hazel for a name tho I not completely happy with it. I need to think about it some more because I don’t like the usual names. Then, once you choose the name it needs to “stick”. I’ve had four cats with names that didn’t stick, they were successfully renamed.
I’ve decided that if I ever wound up with a black and white cat I would name it purgatory as in the state between life and death
Maybe name her Stormy?
Perfect for a Grey kitty. Great name.
I’m stuck on the name genji for a girl gray Maine coon

I called her MITZI.
My cat’s name is Cannoli. She is calico. I’m getting another kitten tomorrow. Just trying to come up with a name.
The new kitten’s name should be something like Tessa or something’s no that doesn’t refer to what it looks like. Just an idea!?
Exactly, Orea is SO predictable and overused!
Gabbie??? ?
How about Lola
I have a Lola, Morgan,Trouble,Simon,Thumper,Simba,Bat Man and ,Whitney and now i have a white female can’t find the right name. She first showed up on Christ-mas Eve. Maybe Angel, Eve,Noel….. HELP!!
My neighbor’s 22 year old son recently was killed in a car accident. His young cat was left to survive alone here out on the country. I have for cats and am adopting this little lady that starving for affection. I thinking to name her Luna or Eclipesi since the eclipse is tomorrow and I don’t know her name.
Sandwich is my boy tabby’s name.
We have a 2-ish year old male cat named Pipp and we are getting a tortoiseshell kitten next month. We’re having a bit of trouble naming her. Maybe once she’s with us for a few days we’ll know. I just wanted a name for her before we get her.
More ideas here Angie https://www.thehappycatsite.com/calico-cat-names/ . Enjoy your new kitten!
Maybe Gabbie just an idea
Fionna (pronounced fē-ō-na) girl version of Finn that comes from the Irish word “Fionn” meaning “fair” or “white” for white cats
Like from shrek
My name’s Fiona (but with one ‘n’)
Fiona/Fionna is a nice name!
I am naming my cat turtle
you have a cat turtle??????
I think it’s pronounced caturtle ?
Bless You! Lol
I was thinking about naming my cat turtle
My cat was five when I got her from someone who was moving out of state and couldn’t keep her. Her name was Psycho, which I didn’t care for, so I changed it to Aiko which means “child of love” or “little loved one” in Japanese and rhymes with Psycho, so she has answered to it from day one!
You are one clever dude to think of that!
I am getting a kitten next month, but am having the hardest time thinking of names. Not sure if it’s male or female. I have a 1 year old black cat named Lucifer (his name fits). Any suggestions?
If were a girl “LucyFur
I have a female calico cat and her name is LuciFurr which totally suits her. I also have a cat named Kitsune that looks like grumpy cat. I have 2 more unusual named cats one is Otter who is all black & Zombie her grey tiger stripped sister.
i am getting a kitten named Star, maybe you should name it that if its a girl
Lol I have a black male as well. Named him Lucifer too. Name totally fits. My black female is named Pandora as in Pandora’s box.
Just got a new kitten last night, She is a Tabby Bengal mix She’s a year old I’ve named her Luci short for Luci-FUR : ) She’s a sweetheart.
I also have a 7 year old tabby named Beetlejuice and my boyfriend’s cat is an all white domestic her name is Trixie.
I had lost my Bengal/Tabby Kruger when I broke up with an ex boyfriend and kept her from me out of spite. Its been almost two years and i still really miss him but I’m trying to move on and so far Luci has been a great joy to have around. I just really love that Bengal personality, I needed that energy and joy in my life again.
I really like the name Trixie I had a calico that I named Trixie
I have a Maine Coon named Ophelia, a Calico named Oakley and a Persian named Eleanor Meowsefelt 🙂
You are the first that has a cat named Oakley too I love the name so much!!
I’ve just found a cat and i have called it maya because it is just the perfect name for her
Maya is an Hindi word which means money
Actually No. Maya means ‘Illusion’ in Sanskrit. In Hindi ‘Maya’ means Kindness. Close to and possibly derived from ‘Mai’ or ‘Maiyya’ which is the word for ‘Mother’ (in several indian languages)
Fun site! I foster critical care kittens with a rescue and when they are healthy (and fixed!) get them adopted into good furrever homes. I have found that the name I give them makes a big difference! I really labor over what to call each one. Having cared for more than 200 kittens it gets to be a real struggle to come up with new attention-catching names! Most fun names I ever used were with a black momcat and her seven kittens. Mom was Snow White and babies were the seven dwarves!
We had a pure black kitty and named her “BABY NIGHT” also another black and white kitty, now 6 years old. INKY is her name. She always responds to her name.
You are a truely good person with a kind heart. People will look up to you. Twilight and Dusk are cut names maybe Sunset. Or DustPaw. Or if you want so,eating unique, Angel…it is a black cat, and usually white cats are called Angel.
I’m adopting a female brown tabby cat that was a stray She was taken in by a lady in the neighborhood. I think I may be naming her Tia. Or Lady T
Go for Tia
We just adopted a pure black (not a white hair on her) from the local shelter. She came with the name Cinder! But she just didn’t fit the name! After watching her play and she showed her true colors and is cute as the day is long! She has very big ears and long legs and big feet! We have changed her name to “Pixi”. She responded immediately to the name!
That’s our calico kittens name too!
We had a pure black kitty and named her “BABY NIGHT” also another black and white kitty, now 6 years old. INKY is her name. She always responds to her name.
We had a solid black cat that my daughter named Anubis after the Egyptian God.
I DID NOT SEE RIZY
I have a pregnant white and black cat her name is jazzy, I love her so much. I had her when she was first born and now she just had her babies 5 days ago. So I am finding homes for them however I am keeping one of them. I’m either gonna keep the black one or the white and black one but I want a beautiful, stunning, and flawless name like for a princess cuz they are baby girls. So please someone comment a suggestion and please don’t say midnight or twilight nothing like that.
Wait. What? You said she’s pregnant and had her babies 5 days ago. So, she’s pregnant again???
I would name th he kitten Mia. Afterf Mia Angelo.
(I think it’s Maya Angelou)
Good for you. I do think however you should spay her. We have enough rescues and strays as it is better to adopt them and find homes for all the cats then to let your cat add to the mix. Although letting cats have babies every now and then is fine, but so many people do it. Just my opinion on things. Hope you enjoy your kittens!
My orange tom is named Sam Magee as he is fascinated by fire.
I have a tuxedo cat and I named her Maxie.
I have a cute dog named Oreo
I just took in a super sweet girl that was dropped off on our local police officers door and I work for the postal service n see many strays but she came right to me n hasn’t left my side so I’m deciding to foster her and keep her possibly if finding anther Home doesn’t become more suitable. She very can seems younge though and like a brown tan marble color. She’s constantly needing my blankets next to me when she snuggles at night. Need major ideas for this lovely girl!! TIA
love the name Isa.
I like the name Salem for a solid black male cat. I think that’s a suitable name for a solid black cat.
It reminds me of the historic witch hunts of Salem but the name itself means ‘city of peace’. A very fitting and proper name.
I named my little girl Shelley she is all white and the name fits her so much..I’ve never own a cat before but fell in luv with her on sight.
I got a pretty girl kitten 4 days ago and named her Chloe. I’m glad to see her name and your favorites list.
Two new female siamese kittens (sisters)
I called them arya and cersi after the sister characters in game of thrones
Cute names, but Arya and Cersei were not sisters. Arya and Sansa we’re sisters. Cersei was the evil queen they wanted dead because she killed their father.
I breed Happycat Ragdolls, in New Zealand, so thought it was appropriate to join this site.

Stella, Caspian, Tramp, Figaro, Blizzard, Starlight, Ivy, Cooper,
I once had an Orange kitty, with orange rings on his tail. I called him Ringalo.
My cats name are Pepsi, daisy, Bailey, saffron and roxy! Cannot live without them!!!
There’s a kitten I’m hoping to adopt, but I can’t think of a good name for her!
She’s very dark brown with very faint other colorings, and blue eyes. She’s also pretty fluffy.
Only name I thought of so far is Mischka, which means “little bear” in Russian. But she looks a bit more of an old soul to me. Thoughts? Suggestions?
I love your name choice. It’s different and so cute!
Muffin…but you said she looks like an old soul…hmmm…not sure.
Maybe Katniss or Moe? Katniss means “pure” (roughly) and Moe means “Saved and loved”. Just suggestions
Maybe Sparrow
My tortoise shell , Autumn , is the sweetest cat I’ve ever had. She’s way cool.
Love all of your ideas for names and to see how much everybody loves their kitties!! I just got a beautfiul Himalayan (long-haired Siamese) chocolate/seal point with a cream-colored mane. He was picked up as a STRAY outside of Raleigh, NC! He’s as sweet as he can be, but I’m having a terrible time finding an appropriate name for this handsome creature. So far, we’ve toyed with Spencer, Mr. Coffee, Kahlua, Prince Charming, Atticus, daVinci, Montague, Lancelot, Galahad, Captain Butler, Mr. Rhett . . . but nothing sticks!! Any suggestions?
“Beau”…French for handsome.
Thanks, Crystal! I’ll keep that one in mind. At the moment, we are trying out Majesty — short, of course, for HIS Majesty!
Beau acually means “beautiful” and I know that bc I take french class
Sir Walter, after Sir Walter Raleigh, 16th century sea captain/privateer.
Mocha or Coco maybe latte
Sushi or panda

I’m getting a dark gray and white Tabby kitten the end of April. Her current name is Moose but I’m thinking about changing it. I’m considering ADAK after Adak, Alaska. Would that work for a girl kitty? (That was my father’s duty station that I have such fond family memories of when I was a kid.)

Ima like you I just got a gray/white with black stripes female Tabby cat what do y’all think of these names KiKu,Pookie, or stinker please help me choose one !!
Gremlin, because she was so ugly. She died couple of years ago…
Sorry to hear that. She couldn’t have been that bad…all cats are beautiful. But for me I do love the hairless cats…but that money though…
We have a black cat with just a few white hairs on his chest and belly. We named him Bruce.
My ? name is cupper and caira …
I had a black and white boy cat years ago. I had a difficult time finding a name that fit. He was a real goof ball and clumsy as all get out. One night we were watching him be his goofy self and I blurted out “What a Bozo”. Bozo that’s it! The name was perfect. It took about three weeks to come up with that, so don’t hurry. Your cat’s personality will help you find their name.
We have a kitten that is 6 weeks old. Before she was born, I told my hubby if we ever got another kitten I wanted to name it Sushi (love the sound of it). He told me I was nuts! (I am!!) Anyway, then the momma has 3 kittens that were all stillborn or died shortly after birth. Then almost a week later, Sushi was born. Today we are getting a kitten that is also 6 weeks old to be a playmate for Sushi. I wanted to name this one Sushimi but that got nixed. So we are naming her either Ziggy or Smudge (she’s solid grey).
I adopted a gray cat with 4 white paws and named her Sugar Toes… Sugs for short. She had 5 kittens. We kept one white with a few gray spots. We named her Twinkle Toes… Twinks for short.
I love that name. We just got two kittens (sisters) one a calico which we think will be Cali and the other girl looks to be siamese coloring but has a white toe on each foot. Twinkle Toes might fit perfectly. Twinks is good too. Most of our kitties names has ended up with a nick name from their full name.
I know a good cat name, Jinx!! That was my cats name ?
One name for black cat os Blacky,thats how’s my cat’d name?
My 2 black male cats are Boo and Smudge, their sister is Kreuger (as in Freddie) appropriately named as she was very ferile and mean. Getting a siamese mix female to he named Mystique. Also getting her sister, a brown tabby. Not sure what to name her…any ideas?? Maybe Tigress, Jenga or Venus??
I named my cat Orion. But later my vet told me that my tomcat was «missing» something. So I renamed her Oriana, I didn’t want to change it too much.
I had the same issue with one of ours kittens years ago. We named (him) Marco Polo because he was so adventurous but turned out to be an girl, so called her Marca Polo. She is Marca these days. We didn’t want to change the name too much either.
I’m getting a black and white stripped kitten (hopefully) and I was thinking Ozzy for her.
I have an orange main coon named sherbert, a tabbico name Stella, grey tabby name Scarlett ( she has a little red nose) and a buff kitten name Simon ????they are the best!!
Oh kinda silly all my cats have middle names .. cuz they are little my kids ( I have 4 of them as well) sherbert john, Stella belle,Scarlett Rae, and Simon Diego ( that was my daughter)…. also a dog Sadie Mae.. ????
I also jus adopted a Russian blue kitten… she is sooo sweet! Her name is Sabrina Mrynn. She is only 2.8 lbs and a total pur machine.
I count decide on weather or not total my kitten diva or princes
I have a gorgeous Ragdoll kitten, and I could NOT find a name cute enough for her. My boyfriend suggested Penelope, and it fit her so perfectly! We call her Penny for short sometimes. I later found out that the cat on Looney Tunes, the one Pepe LePew used to harass, was named Penelope Pussycat! All these years I had never known she had a name! Any way I’m getting Penelope a sister tomorrow for her first birthday. We’re adopting an all grey kitten. Name suggestions? An original one if possible. Thanks everyone! 🙂
Mistik
Mistik would be a great name for the grey kitties out there.
I just got a gray Tabby laced with silver from the ASPCA, my daughter named her silver lady.
I’m getting a grey kitten next week for my grandkids, she’s a very pretty little girl. Didn’t know what to call her, after going through the names , I figured Dusty will be her name and it’s going to fit her just perfect,, thanks for all the names you have put in Many thanks , Linda
Thank you for the names you have posted , we are getting a grey kitten next week. And we have decided on the name Dusty. It sounds like it will suit her well .

My 14 year old son picked out his own kitten so he gets to chose her name as she is his now. He has chosen “Nacho”. Uhhgg but he says she is his little Nacho so I think that out shines any cute little names for the sweetie.

I had some many cats already in my life – from my first memory already. Now, next to my 3 (1 Maine Coon, 1 mixed-maine coon) cats, I’m taking other 3 (maine coons) kittens in 10 weeks… I’m looking for inspiration for the last one of the kittens. Here are a few of the names from the past, current and for the new ones:
– Sky (from Skywalker) & (Master) Yoda –> 2 brothers that I loved so deeply.
– Mimi
– Foxy (black & white)
– Luna (2x)
– Xuxa
– Mickey (2x)
– Milu
– Fonfon
– Lucky
– Frajola (Silvester from the cartoon in Portuguese) –> black & white
– Lynx –> one of the kittens of my cat adopted by a friend
– Jiggy
– Ginger
– Toby (new)
– new…? Stormy? Shine? Diva? Sterre? Kimmy?
I have an all grey female with white paws. What should I name her?
