500+ of The Best Boy Cat Names

02.02.2022.

One of the first things new cat owners will have to do is pick a fitting name for their new furry family member. It sounds easy, but facing nearly unlimited options makes for a tough decision. Luckily, there are a few tips that might help you pick the right name for your new male cat. Here are World Cat Finder’s tips for picking boy cat names.

How to pick the best boy cat name?

When picking a name for your boy cat, there are different things you should consider. For example, your cat’s most dominant feature might be a good inspiration for a name. If you get an orange cat, Rusty might be a fun name to pick. Maybe your cat loves hunting toys, so Hunter might be the right choice. Here are the tips to help you choose a male cat name;

1. Coat color

The first source of inspiration should be your cat’s coat color. Cats come in all sorts of colors and patterns, so you can get creative and choose a name that might highlight the cat’s most dominant trait.

2. Character

The cat’s character is what will define him. If you have a playful, affectionate cat, choose a name that will reflect his dominant character trait. You can go positive or negative. Grumpy or Happy are both viable options.

3. Keep it short

Short cat names are usually a better choice. Mind you, not precisely better, but more practical. Your cat will remember a short name faster than a long, complicated one. The cat will quickly learn it, and you’ll achieve your goal faster.

4. Use your favorite things

One of the best things about choosing your cat’s name is that you can choose something from your favorite books, TV series, movies, sports, or whatever you want. For example, we love Harry Potter, so you might not be surprised our cat is named Crookshanks. To keep it short, we call him mostly Crook.

5. Avoid family member names

This tip is something animal lovers should follow regardless of which animal they get. Giving your cat the same name as your family member is a recipe for confusion. Your cat and family member will never know who you’re calling.

Keep in mind that the only thing that limits you is your imagination. Here is an extensive list of possible boy cat names you can choose from.
