Gray cartoon cat face above the words Names are suggestions and Ask your vet about health

CatNicknames is a name site, not a veterinary service. Cat facts link to their sources, name meanings are shown only with a cited source and can differ by region, and we are not affiliated with Disney, Warner Bros., Erin Hunter, HarperCollins or any franchise mentioned.

Not veterinary advice

Nothing here replaces advice from a veterinarian. Where we mention a cat fact, we link to the source: the ASPCA, the American Association of Feline Practitioners or the Cornell Feline Health Center. Ask your vet about your own cat.

The sources we link to for cat facts.

Name meanings

A meaning appears only when we can check it against a reliable source, and we cite that source. Meanings and spellings can differ by region and language, so treat them as a guide.

No affiliation

We are not affiliated with Disney, Warner Bros., Erin Hunter, HarperCollins or any film, book or game mentioned. Their names belong to their owners. See the privacy policy, the terms and the about page. Back to CatNicknames.

Our own lists

The generator picks from lists written by our editors. A name can also be used by other people or other cats, and we cannot promise that a name is unique. If you plan to register a pet name with a club or a microchip service, check their rules first.

Links to sources

When we link to a source such as the ASPCA, AAFP or Cornell Feline Health Center, the link is there so you can read the original. We do not control those sites and they do not endorse ours.

Changes

We update pages as we fix mistakes. The date at the bottom of each page shows the last change.
