And also in this article we will discuss some of the signs with names. The options may be very different, in this article we will offer you some, and then, use your worldview.

How to name a kitten?

There are some rules that apply to choosing a name for cats:

It should be simple, or better short, words from 2 syllables are suitable for this (Musya, Kuzya);
Experts say that it is easiest for kittens to remember those words in which there are hissing letters (c, h, w, s, x);
It is also believed that a suitable nickname would be one that ends in a vowel.

Therefore, we present for you a list of names that may be suitable for your pet: Tom, Miles, Dani, Archie, Richie, Santa, Kitty, Rick, Nikki, Mickey.

If you have a very tiny animal and you want to call it so tenderly and affectionately, then choose something from the names: Mini, Pupsik, Dwarf, Knop, Kid.

When the owners have an animal that is rather large in size or is fluffy, then the nicknames are suitable for it: Snowdrift, Behemoth, Mister, Big, Fluff, Fat Man, Daddy.

Famous owners of their friends also call them funny names, for example, Anastasia Volochkova nicknamed her cat, the Neva Masquerade breed - Zhorzhik. And Plushenko Evgeny (skater) gave the nickname to his pet - Pukhlik.

Likewise, if two fluffy four-legged animals live in your house, then you can give them funny nicknames, remembering cartoons. These include: Chuk and Gek, Timon and Pumbaa, Tom and Jerry, Chip and Dale, Tilly and Willie, Lelik and Bolik, Shik and Shine.

Names for kittens

Since cat breeds have lived with people for a long time, mankind has already invented a lot of things in relation to nicknames for females. There are many familiar names that are already boring enough and tired of society, such as: Murka, Barsik, Masha, Dasha, Musya, Bonya, Kuzya, Lucy.

Therefore, in our XXI century, you can pick up something original. Agree that even if you have a crazy cat, such solid names make him more gallant: Boney, Daniel (Daniela), Chloe, Merelin, Monica, Jessica.

If you had a special event in your life (or the cat itself brought a zest to your life), then calling it suitable name, you will remember this all your life (see). This includes nicknames: Champion, Moment, Surprise, Victory, Ballerina, Actress.

Why not choose a beautiful graceful name for your girl? Malibu, Samantha, Rose, Mary, Alice, Elizabeth, Ava, Aphrodite, Lady, Lyalya.

And again, if you have two cats that need their name, then choose something similar: Rikki and Tikki, Gerda and Berta, Yin and Yang.

For those who have a male and a female, the nicknames are suitable: Lilo and Stich, Kai and Gerda, Lyalya and Po, Count and Countess, Tsar and Tsarina, Adam and Eve, Tinky and Winky, Bubble and Straw.

Funny and unusual nicknames

Cats usually always bring something light and kind into the life of their owners. With their tricks and inventions, they cannot but make even the most formidable person smile. But, if you choose a funny name for such a pet, then you will always have a positive at home.

Usually such names are born, looking at the appearance of the kitten, its habits and characteristics.

Therefore, when a cat that is not sitting in place appears in the house, then give it a nickname: Bouncer, Naughty, Grumpy, Yula, Sharpie, Ninja, Hurricane, Rogue or Spy. If the owners have a fluffy animal and with pronounced cheeks, then the following names are suitable for it: Hamster, Garfield, Pig, Sandwich, Sandwich, Pelmen.

Nicknames are considered quite original: Bucks, Dollar, Bearded, Mumlya, Rarity, Masyanya, Chaplin, Gluck, Eggplant, Romeo, Pirate, Brick, Susanin, Gopher, Lucifer, Robber, Student or Cowboy. For girls, they will be very suitable: Lyalya, Fairy, Doll, Chocolate, Swallow, Carmelita, Caramel, Berry, Fantasy, Cutie, Pistachio, Marmalade or Gypsy. If such a female stands out for her cool temper, then call her: Chimera, Podliza, Skoda, Lokhmatic, Monkey.

Beautiful and tender names

Naturally, for every owner, a fluffy lady is always the best and most beautiful. You can emphasize your love like this by giving it a cute name. These include: Asy, Pretty Woman, Barbie, Laska, Milka, Cutie, Nyashka, Rafaelka, Masya, Nezhenka, Snowflake. You can also name it based on your favorite pretty flowers: Rose, Jasmine, Orchid, Tulip, Violet, Lily.

Suitable nicknames for ladies will be: Samantha, Josie, Izya, Joselle, Matilda, Catty, Bella, Britney, Monica.

And for males, names are suitable: Arnold, Archie, Richie, Dani, Mickey, Leo, Lamour, Sebastian. If your boy is too gentle for such names, then name him: Timka, Lelik, Laskach, Pushhok, Murko, Lyubimysh, Karapuz, Yashka, Snezhok.

Russian names for cats

Of course, if your friend is taken from the club, then often his name may already be indicated in the passport. Unfortunately, it can be difficult, ugly or not ours. But many people want their animal to be named in accordance with their country (see).

For some reason, it is accepted among people that if this british cat, which means that his name should be American, if Siamese - oriental, and if Russian, then Russian.

Sometimes the owners simply shorten the official names given in the passport, but they can also come up with completely their own.

When the owner has a Russian cat, then he wants to give the appropriate nickname. But, let's first figure out which cat breeds are considered Russian.

These include:

Russian blue;
Don Sphynx;
Neva Masquerade;
Ural rex;
Kurilian bobtail;
Siberian;
Petersburg Sphinx;
Thai bobtail.

However, it is not necessary that the kitten was purebred in order to give it russian name... If any pet, even a purebred one, lives in a family that is Russian by blood, then they can safely take their native name. Why not name the cat: Trofim, Philip, Zakhar, August, Julius, Anton, Boris, Benjamin, Evdokim, Bogdan, Vsevolod, Grigory or Makar?

And for a kitty who lives in Russia, the following are suitable: Seraphima, Aza, Marta, Zoya, Gloria, Athanasia, Martha, Nika, Octavia, Faina.

But, it is worth remembering that calling your four-legged pet by a human name, you can offend someone. Imagine that a person comes to visit you with the name that your male or female bears. Wouldn't he feel uncomfortable?

Or maybe he will be offended, thinking that his name is not so attractive that they call animals. And therefore, this question is purely personal and it is only necessary for its owner to make a decision about such a nickname for his cat.

Names appropriate to the character

When the kitten comes to new house, then it is not immediately possible to determine its nature. Often, babies have stress from a new environment and new people, but after waiting just a little bit, he will still show his “I”. Therefore, if you see that this is a restless miracle, then call it: Shustrik, Flyer, Batman, Zhivchik, Runner, Bullet, Rambo, Adrenaline, Tarzan.

And if you have a female with such a restless character, then name her: Pulka, Dragonfly, Skewer, Runner, Fidget, Squirrel. When the owner is a real lover and connoisseur of cars, then an active cat can remind him of his favorite car. That is why the names will suit them: Lexus, Bentley, Ferrari, Mercy, Gina (Lamborghini), Skoda.

In the same way, funny names are suitable for active kittens: Motor, Veselchak, Lightning, Snickers, Jumping, Thunder, Shocker, Brawler, Gambler. For girls, nicknames will become suitable: Star, Feather, Igrulya, Fun. If the owners are the same funny people and pranksters, then the clockwork pet can be given opposite nicknames, for example: Snail, Ballerina, Turtle.

Naturally, not all owners have active animals, therefore, having met a calm and gentle young lady, you can call her: Sonya, Nezhenka, Lyalya, Murlena, Knop. And with such an unsightly character, a boy can become a Tikhony, Yogurt, Matroskin or a Listener.

If your female is too proud for a simple name, then choose a nickname: Aristocrat, Fifa, Goddess, Lady, Princess, Diva, Princess. And when your guy looks very elegant and behaves with dignity, then the names are suitable for him: Major, Bucks, Boss, Dollar, Baron, Prince, Sultan.

Folk signs

For some people, traditions or signs are of great importance, so when choosing a nickname for their pet, they also take this into account.

One of the most important signs says that you cannot call an animal by the name of a deceased cat or person. This sign suggests that if this is the name of the cat, then the deceased soul, not having time to ascend to heaven, can move into the soul of your kitten. Therefore, it is believed that such males or females do not live long.

Therefore, if you want to save your beloved animal from an unhappy fate, then choose a worthy nickname for it.

For people who believe that names bring good luck, wealth or something else, there is a list of such names, for example:

Lucky, Rada, Happy, Lucky - names that bring happiness to the house;
Fish, Healer, Hottabych, Wizard, Jin, Mage - suitable for those cats that will be able to bring good luck or heal weak places in humans;
Lyuba, Love, Venus, Lyubava, Lyubov - the names of pets that will bring love to your house;
Kopeyka, Evrik, Rublik, Money, Bucks - refer to those animals that are responsible for wealth in the family. And even if you have a female and a male, then call them, connecting these names, for example, Kopeyka and the ruble. Many people believe that this is what will bring wealth to their home, because their cats correspond to the proverb “A penny protects a ruble”;
Bayun, Peace, Harmony, Peace - these are the names for those who believe that they will bring peace and tranquility to the house.

Such lists with the names of cats and cats go on and on. However, each person has their own fantasies, worldviews and desires. Therefore, after reading this article and thinking a little, we hope that you will be able to find a worthy and appropriate name for your animal.

As soon as the kitten appears at home, the question immediately arises of how to name it. Of course, I would like to give him some unusual, funny name. You will learn the coolest names for cats from this article. The name can be chosen based on the nature of the pet or its appearance.

How to name a cat?

Have you made the decision to get a cat or have you even brought it home? It's time to think about a name. There are some tips on how to choose a name for your cat. It is not necessary to follow them, but it is worth learning about them:

It is believed that cats respond best to hissing and whistling sounds, especially to "k" and "s". No wonder we call them "kitty-kitty".

Do not forget about the euphony, call the animal obscene and unpleasant names, names consonant with obscene words. After all, it may happen that you have to walk down the street, loudly shouting this nickname.
Be careful with human names. Not every friend will understand if a cat is named after him. And people with that name may appear in your environment.
Choose a nickname with the whole family. Each family member will have to pronounce this word several times a day, so it is undesirable for someone to have negative associations. Try to come to an agreement, there are often cases when the animal different people called differently. Better to accustom the kitten to one name.
The chosen nickname should be pleasant to you, easy to pronounce. If you chose a long name, then say it several times. Do you pronounce it easily, do you stumble?

The importance of choosing the right kitten name

Take seriously the choice of a nickname for your pet, because your animal, like a person, is also a person, which means that you need to come up with a special name that is suitable for him. Your choice should appeal not only to you, but also to your pet: his name will be pronounced several times a day, and the animal will also need to react to it correctly.

An important point: a cat's nickname should be laconic, sound clear and not too long. So the animal will remember it faster, and it will be easier for the owner to pronounce it.

Nevertheless, if you really want to reward a cat with a long or several-syllable name, do not worry - there is a way out. Even the longest name can be shortened: Geraldine - Jera , for example.
There is a tendency to call cats by human names, but this is not the best idea. It will be embarrassing if a friend comes to visit you. Sonya , and you will call your cat by the same name. It's another matter if these are old names that are rarely used these days: Philemon, Agafya, Roxana.

What should you rely on when choosing a name for your pet:

Cat's coat color. There is already room for fantasies to roam, and if the nickname Blackie for a black kitten, for example, sounds rustic, name the pet Blackie , or use others foreign languages... Make associations, white cat - Snowball or Fluff, the black - Coal etc.
Wool feature. Bald cat - Shrek, or Tutankhamun, or the entire list of Egyptian pharaohs (suitable for the "Sphinx" breed). A smooth-haired cat can be called Bagheera, Panther , fluffy - Fat man , red - Carrot, Pumpkin or Redhead ... For a small kitten, a nickname is suitable Lump, friend, barefoot. But remember - he will not always remain small: a cat weighing 10 kg named Lump - it will be a very funny picture.
Cat breed... In this case, the name for her must be chosen corresponding to her origin. Immigrants from Britain can be honored with an English name, and Thai - with Japanese, Persians can use tender-sounding names. Or simply - Baron, Marquis, Lord, Earl.
Pet character ... If you have already managed to get to know the delicate nature of your cat, or rather, if there is some peculiarity in it, then it will be easy to name it. The sloth can be called Sonya or Sleepy, naughty kitten - Bully, prankster, mischief.

Approach the choice of a nickname with a sense of humor, come up with a mischievous and funny name. Cats have such a serious behavior that you just want to play a trick on them. For instance, Bun, Watermelon... There are a lot of funny names. Just don't reward your junior friends with offensive or sarcastic nicknames, even in jest. Cats are more than friends, they are family members and should not be insulted. Zamazura, Gryaznulya, Bastard and similar nicknames will not work.

Do not despair if you have come up with a good, at your discretion, name for your pet, but he does not react to it in any way. After some time - a week, two weeks or more, you can try to rename the kitten. But do not rename an animal more than once. Then it will not understand at all what they want from it.

Nicknames for cats, depending on the breed

There is an interesting enough formula for giving a name to a kitten with pedigree. There are two basic rules:

The name of a kitten, be it a boy or a girl, must begin with the letter that is present in the name of his mother - a cat.
The serial number of the letter of the name of the cat is determined from the time she brought the offspring.

For example, if the cat's name is Flory and she brought the kittens a second time, then their names should start with "L" ... This is not a whim at all, but a mandatory requirement in nurseries that breed pedigree species cats. This fact must be indicated in all documents - metrics confirming the pedigree, this makes it possible for the kitten to take part in various exhibitions and competitions in the future.

If the name of an animal consists of several words, or is complex in itself, you can come up with an easier, simplified version. In addition, experts who are engaged in breeding their own cats advise giving the kitten a short name consisting of one or two syllables. For instance, Archie or Richie.

After six months, the cat must respond to its name. If this is not the case, then there is a high probability that it is too difficult for him. However, do not mislead your pet by changing his name, but pronounce the one that was originally given clearly and expressively. Praise and call for food by pronouncing his name.

Remember that with the help of a correctly chosen name, you can correct the existing inclinations of the animal, bringing up the desired behavior and character.

How not to call cats?

It happens that a beloved animal passes away, and in order to dull the pain of loss a little, another tailed friend is brought into the house. Often, a new family member is called the same as the deceased, but this cannot be done. A kitten can take on all the negativity from the life of the previous pet, and this is useless. Keep the memory of the departed kitten in your heart, and give to the new one new life with a new name.

How to choose a nice nickname for your pet

It is believed that a name for a cat of any breed must necessarily contain hissing sounds, such as "k", "s", "sh". But this only helps the kitten get used to it faster. It's good if the nickname is short, consisting of 2 - 3 syllables.

If, nevertheless, the choice fell on a long one, you can come up with an abbreviation to make it easier for the pet to remember it.

Of course, not everyone calls a cat by following the rules. And at the same time, the animal nevertheless adapts over time and begins to respond.

Any of these differences from other pets can serve as an excellent selection criterion.
