Bringing home a new cat is an exciting moment, and one of the first big decisions you’ll make is choosing the perfect name! Whether your feline friend is playful, sassy, elegant, or downright silly, the right name can capture her personality and make her feel even more like part of the family.

With so many options out there, narrowing it down can feel overwhelming—but don’t worry! We’ve put together a massive list of 900 girl cat names to help you find the perfect fit. From classic favorites to unique and creative picks, there’s something here for every kind of kitty.

Let’s find the name that suits your new princess best!

GIRL CAT NAMES – HOW TO PICK THE BEST NAMES FOR CATS

When choosing meaningful names, it’s important to consider things like the cat’s personality, breed, and color. For example, if you have a Siamese cat with piercing blue eyes, you may want to choose a name like Sapphire or Sky. Or if you have a playful tabby with a curious nature, names like Luna or Zoe may suit her well.

Another option is to choose a name that matches your cat’s appearance. If you have a white cat, Snowball or Frost could be fitting names. Or if you have a jet black cat, Midnight or Panther would be suitable choices. For long haired cats like Maine Coons or Ragdolls, you might use Fluffy or Shaggy.

You can also take inspiration from famous female cats in pop culture, such as Garfield’s girlfriend Arlene or Salem from Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Or perhaps you have a favorite fictional character that embodies your cat’s personality – naming her after them would serve as an ode to their qualities.

Below we have provided a list of 900 unique cat names to serve as inspiration for naming your new cat. We encourage you to research the meaning of names that catch your eye – for example, some names are of obscure and mythical goddesses, and not something you would normally think of to name your cat. We firmly believe that if any animal deserves to be named after a goddess, it is a cat!
