Russian Blue Cat Names
When naming your cat, you can be inspired by lots of things.
Book characters, for example. Superheroes. Favorite friends and family members even.
Or, perhaps your cat has a funny expression that makes naming easy.
Sometimes it takes just a quick look to say, “Yep, that fits my cat to a T.” Other times, it’s much more difficult to pin down the perfect name.
And as you know, your cat will learn to recognize her name, and will hopefully have that name all her life, so you need to choose wisely.
The options are pretty much limitless. So how can you choose?
Our method is to break them down into batches by category. Then you can narrow the list based on your likes and dislikes, and choose the one you like best.
Is it her fur, gender, size, or eyes that inspire you? Do you want a short name, a long name, a funny name, a regal name? Do you wish to acknowledge her breed?

My Russian Blue cats name is WESA. Pronounced Wee sah. He is 10 months old. He has gold eyes. Beautiful boy.
If he has golden eyes then probably he’s not a purebred.
My Russian blue is 7 years young his name is Vladimir Putin I love him so.
My Russian Blue is 10 and his name is OVI named for Ovechkin.
We now have a 9week old Russian blue girl and we can’t seem to get a name to fit.
We also had a 10 year old Russian Blue girl who was not happy as an indoor cat. We let her out and she was good for 20 years and then was killed last August by a car. Her name was Ivanka.
Oh no poor Ivanka! I would be devastated if my cat Moon died.
My male is Mocha and my tiny female is Tia, often called The Big T, or Sweet Tee. (coffee and tea companions so to speak.) Sweet and loyal cat breed.
First I like the clean layout of this site, no overpowering ad’s. Ton’s of info and laid out correctly.
I have a stray, barn, feral momma Blue Russian cat with two of four kittens. I am trying to so-call, rescue her. She is a very good momma cat, lets her babies eat first and watches over them.
She is still thin, but her kittens are fat and happy.
I purchased like $200 worth of stuff for them and they barely come inside. And maybe $195 more to get them all fixed. Almost $400 for cats I do not have names for yet. Hence, I am here.
I had a 90 pound GSD and no neighborhood pets were ever harmed, she owned the entire area. She, RIP, got hit by a dumb a## driving too fast. Now that she is gone, a stray dog has killed or maimed many small pets. That is just wrong.
Now I need you all to help me name a Russian Blue momma cat and two kittens. The kittens I do not know the sex yet.
Funny story about my cats name. My daughter fostered this cat, and was told it was a male. When I saw him, I instantly fell in love. I named him Sterling. Went to the vet for a checkup, and shots and was told he was a she. She was already responding to her name so her name has changed to Sterling Silver Belle.
My precious little RB 6 mo old male is named Topaz…..Smokey Blue Topaz to be exact ! However he comes to ” baby, kitties, sweetie, lovie….whatever!
My sisters companion Russian Blue male cats name is Bluebear; because of the type of cat and he is soft like a bear.
I have a Russian Blue named Juniper that I’ve had for 8 years this June. She’s very petite and absolutely beautiful.
22 yrs ago my son got this cute little grey kitten for his birthday. He named him his little Buddy. A yr later Buddy eat some weed and from that day he became Budz. My son passed away about 6 yrs ago so Budz is living his last yrs with me. And I love him.
My granddaughters RB is named Matcha for her green eyes.
