It’s not always easy to dare to be different. And when it comes to finding unique cat names the pressure is seriously on. Will your off the wall idea be celebrated, or leave people raising their eyebrows in confusion? I’ve named a lot of pets over the years and have found the best way to come up with something no one else has thought of is to work along a theme. It might be the names of your favorite castles, unusual plants, or even someone you met once on a train that had a friendly face. If you go with something that has meaning as well as the cool factor, you’re always going to be on to a winner. And today I’ll help you along the journey by providing inspiration, ideas and stepping stones for you to hop across on your travels to the perfect original cat name.

Bold and Brave or Meek and Mild?
A cat’s personality is a great place to start – every cat is different and their personalities start showing from such a young age! Using their personality as inspiration is a great way to think of a name that is unique to your cat and that suits it perfectly. Here are some examples:
- Pouncer
- Arty
- Hunter
- Racer
- Melody
- Creep
- Trust
- Bubbles
- Solumn
- Fidget
- Scratches
- Chatterbox
- Tickler
- Jumper
- Fickle
Not sure any of these are quite right? Our readers suggest ‘Bruiser’, ‘Sneak’, ‘Hero’ and ‘Lucifer’ may all work well for some cats too!
Cute Creative Girls Names
Human names are a really popular choice when it comes to naming our pets, but this does not mean that these names cannot be unique. Choosing a human name can be difficult, as you might want to avoid the names of your family and friends. However, they tend to fluctuate in popularity, so a name that is less popular now could be the perfect fit for your cat. Here are some examples of less popular names now that could make a great unique name for your kitty.
- Bridget
- Carly
- Debra
- Eileen
- Elaine
- Janet
- Jean
- Joanne
- Juliet*
- Millie*
- Sally
- Sandra
- Sheila
- Tracey
- Wendy
- Willow*
- Ursula
- Yvonne
- Zenda
Adorable But Not Trending Boys Names
Here are some less popular male human names that you might think are the perfect choice for your cat! They might not be current celebrity faves, but you could be your very own trend setter.

- Cecil
- Chester
- Clarence
- Clive
- Dean
- Dennis
- Egbert
- Gary
- Frederick
- Horace
- Malcolm
- Nigel
- Sidney

Inspired By Coat Color
A great way to set off on ideas for unusual names is to take a close look at your pet. Is there a tint to the fur or a notch in the ear? Appearance can be awesome inspiration.
Black Cats
When naming your black cat, it’s tempting to go for typical names that describe your cat’s fur color. These names are great, however, they’re often too popular to be unique.
To find a more unique name, we could look at the meaning behind the name. This is a clever way of complementing your cat’s gorgeous dark fur but still choosing a name many other cats won’t have! Here are some names with meanings that flatter our black cats’ coats.
- Achlys (darkness)
- Amaro (dark)
- Bruna (dark haired)
- Cerin (little dark one)
- Kalan (black)
- Krishna (black)
- Zila (shade)
- Collyer (charcoal merchant)
- Ohanzee (shadow)
- Sauda (dark beauty)
White Cats
We can also use the above technique when looking for names for white cats!
- Abyaz (white)
- Earwin (white river)
- Finna (fair)
- Atali (pure)
- Zaki (bright, pure)
- Edur (snow)
- Neve (snowy)
- Morvan (pale)
- Pandu (pale)
- Olwen (white footprint)
Naturally Gorgeous Names
Cute cat names are a great way to show off just how adorable your new pet is, but it can be difficult to think of something that’s both cute and unique! We can get inspiration from nature and the world around us to think of cute names that could suit our kitties perfectly! Here are some you might like.
- Acorn
- Bean
- Briar
- Clementine
- Daffodil
- Echo
- Fig
- Fir

- Mustard
- Orchid
- Pea
- Pepper
- Pickles
- Rosebud
- Sprout

Cool Cats
Lots of people use human inspiration when naming their cat, but another way to find a cool, unique name is to look at inspiration in the media. Some famous cat names, like Garfield or Bagpuss, have been used time and time again as pet names, however this doesn’t mean that there are no unique ones. Here are some examples of cat’s from the media that you might like, and where they appeared.
- Monkey (Perry Mason)
- Mrs Paw (Big Barn Farm)
- Muffy (Shipping Wars)
- Spot (Star Trek: The Next Generation)
- Toonces (Saturday Night Live)
- Jonesy (Alien)
- Sassy (Homeward Bound)
- Orion (Men in Black)
- Mittens (Bolt)
- Benny (Top Cat)
Historically Unique Cat Names
Another way to find more unique names for our pets is to use inspiration from different historical periods. This gives you a huge scope for names, as you could look at any historical era, or any region! Historical names can also have a great story behind them that you can share with your friends when they meet your kitty!
- Millard
- Rutherford
- Grover
- Warren
- Marlon

Tasty Inspiration
We loved hearing how many of your unique cat names are inspired by foods. You suggested:
- Coconut
- Fish
- Snickers
- Peanut
- Pickles
There’s lots of fun to be had looking in the cupboards for inspiring food names. What about ‘Chilli’ for a feisty personality, or ‘Cucumber’ for a more chilled kitty?
We’d love to hear about the most unique pet names you’ve heard before! Can you think of any names to add to our list.

I love the name Olive or Beatrix for a black cat or Pippy as in Pippy Longstocking for an orange cat.

My old kittens name was dude but she was a female.
I have a question that would mean a lot to me if you could answer this.
Two names really stuck out to me that I really liked. There was Amaro, which meant dark, and Earwin, which meant white river.
Could you tell me in what language it means that?
Like in what language does Amaro mean dark, and in what language does Earwin mean white river?
Thank you in advance as this would really help me out , I also very enjoyed reading this article <3
xoxo, Liza
I have had several unusual kitty names. We had Sugarfoot, she was black with white dipped feet. Dimples, a tuxedo with white markings on his cheeks. Mango Jerry and Rumm Tum Tugger for the Broadway show Cats. And Mr. L.T. Purrkins.
Hi Jennifer,
I know that in Italian Amaro means bitter, not dark. Scuro is the word that means dark….
Amaro is Italian. Earwin is Welsh, and probably should be Earwen.
My Persian’s name was Tumbleweed and she certainly looked like one!
Plata (silver in SpaNish)

Bonkers
Tucker or Tuckie
Bother

My in laws have named their cats : Vincent van gogh ( he has swirl patterns in his fur that look like Starry Night) and Leah-nardo Da vinchi ( wanted to continue the artist theme but little Leah is a young lady)
Growing up we had several cats on the farm and we came up with unique names for most of them.
We had a black one with a white stripe running under his chin and down his tummy…named him Skunk.
Had a solid black one was named High Noon instead of Midnight.
Cinnamon (Cinny) and Nutmeg (Meggy) part Siamese males and their solid black sisters Charlie 1 and Charlie 2. My mom and I didn’t agree on the sexes and I had originally named the males Casper and Popcorn.
We also had Bartender(Tender)..not sure how we came up with that one, Mogen David, Blue Diamond, Blue Angel, Skeeziks, and IBTC (Itty Bitty Titty Committee) are just some of the unusual names we came up with over the years.
We’re hoping to find a unique name for a cat we just adopted this month. She’s a senior, sassy cat who came with the name “Oprah”; no disrespect intended here but she’s 90% white with a few patches of gray/taupe on her back, gray/taupe tail, grey face with a jagged white marking that makes us think of the northern lights … but any translations of it (aka, aurora borealis) don’t fit her personality. We’ve since learned this 10yr young kitty is a “Snow-Shoe Siamese” with her gorgeous blue eyes. And like a typical Siamese, we hear about it at breakfast & dinner-time, LoL
My friend calls her daughter Rory, short for Aurora. It also sounds like Roar-y.
– Squeakers (fun)
– Swiper (cartoon)

And my cat is called Sillen but sometimes I call him Silly Sillen.

Our first time and only cat came with the name of Ferb. It suits him.
My 2 boys are Raffles and Bingo. Getting a new one and thinking of either Nugget or Domino. Husband and daughter (mother of 2 who should know better!) thinks we should call him Lucky Dip. What’s really funny is we only do the lottery every now and again!
I have 3 cats……Pikachu, Puppy n Panther
I don’t have a cat but I want some to name their furry friend Madam puddifoot… from Harry Potter
My kitty is Zima. Its Russian for winter and he is an all white kitty. I say it fits for him.

i always wanted a cat named Pixel. Also, my friend has a cat literally named Dog, And has a dog named Cow.
Once had a white/grey chinchilla kitten my mother-in-law named Spuddle. His name just popped into her head. Tinker was another cat years ago. My last 2 cats have been named Tia-Maria and Bailey. Thinking of continuing the alcoholic names for next kitty with Kahlua, Brandy, Shiraz, Sherry or Whiskey, depending on sex and colouring.
Legend, Whisper, Magic, Deja Voodoo, Demetri, BellaDonna, Freya, Persephone, FolkLore, Red Romeo, Willow, Icarus, Nightshade, Irony, Sasha, Thornton, Remy LeBeau that just a few of my rescues over the years!
Hubby and I just adopted a Maine Coon mix. She is a kitten about 12 weeks old. We have named her Furball !
Arty
Fickle
Fish and Chips
I had a cat called montezuma it’s from a book called momtezuma’s adventures it’s about a cat who has nine lives
My cat’s name is Ethel. She is a tortoiseshell rescue cat. The vets named her? after she was run over and left for dead. But Ethel is quite happy with her name and she is so loving. We have never heard of another cat named Ethel!
We called ours “Monsieur” like the French word for Sir
my fiends cat is called Missy,she is a tabby and really cute. the name really suits her.
My cats are: Noisy (she’s 3-legged & very noisy), Georgette, Boondy, Tudot, Mamie, Wilfred, Tabitha (when I’m cuddling her, I would call her Tabitha Patita), Chot.
My granddaughters cat is named Cat Benitar
Our rescue babies are…Loki, Thor, Emma, Mika, Pixie, Asha, Daisy, Cheeto, Tarzan, Scout, Cato, Sophie, Simba, Leo, Wonky, Harley, Milo, Fluffy, Cleo, and Oreo.
I had 2 black cats named Blackie Chan and Jet Li, then was adopted by a stray tabby who I named Bruce Lee in an effort to keep with my theme. But, that did not last long and as Bruce’s personality got bigger and he took over our hearts, his name got longer as well. My husband and I were new into our relationship and like any toddler/child, Bruce liked to interrupt things and so became Brucifer Lee. We learned how much of an affection hound he was in the years he was with us. Even with so called “cat-haters”, Brucifer would find a way into their laps and before they even realized it they were petting and loving on him. Brucifer Lee was now Brucifer Lee McLovin, Ninja Kitty Extraordinaire. The years went by and we thought Brucifer’s name was complete, but no it wasn’t. Old age caught up with our Brucifer and he developed a cataract and that required another addition to his moniker~ Brucifer Lee McLovin Odinson, Ninja Kitty Extraordinaire. He’s been gone a little while now wearing his angel wings. I’m sure he’s left his halo in someone’s lap and he’s teaching those hater’s that it’s all about the LOVE man, so get your petting on and find your Zen.
If I have a cat I would call it moss (mossy) I think that name really suits a grey kitten. and I hope to get moss some day!
Minu
We currently have one boy, a very white Persian Chinchilla, he is PRINCE DIAMOND. He are expecting our baby Ragdoll shortly and his name will be SUKI (means the beloved one). Super excited!!!
I’m looking for a name for my new female Siamese mix. I already have Comet, Gimli, Sweetie, Peanut, Zippy, Bogie, Bashful, Storm, Houdini, Smudge, Josie, Ralphie and OJ.
We have 2 ragdolls, a female cat called Bunny (she is a chocolate ragdoll) and our male who is a blue point, his name is Dusty. My ultimate silly name for a cat would be “chicken” for a ginger cat. 🐱 I think it could be cute
I have always used cat names that begin with “M”.
Perhaps because I am italian I love using italian nicknames or colloquiol names.
Miccio de Micciottis

My daughters animals are named after food- popsicle, taco, rocky road, strawberry and jelly bean.
I was given a gray cat whose litter-mates got names like Smoky, Dusty, Ashes. I gave mine the more unique name Penumbra (half shadow). It fit because she would hide in the shadows.
