As soon as a cute fluffy ball appears in the house, the owners begin to think about what to name the boy kitten. The baby is just beginning to settle into his new home and therefore behaves modestly and even timidly. And you don’t understand at all what his character is, how he will treat all family members?
Yielding to the first emotions of tenderness and pity for a defenseless kitten, many can call it by an affectionate name. But Fluffy and Cornflowers grow into serious cats, and the names become completely inappropriate. Therefore, it is worth thinking about the nickname in advance.
What to pay attention to
When deciding to get a cat, every person should understand that the responsibility for the care, maintenance, feeding and education of the animal falls on his shoulders. The first question that arises for the “cat breeder” is to give the pet a cool nickname. The name should be concise and simple, but at the same time original and suitable for a particular pet.
When choosing a name for a furry family member, many focus on:
- breed (unique distinctive features);
- exterior (big or small cat, features of color and coat type, individual characteristics);
- temperament and habits;
- own preferences, hobbies, hobbies, etc.;
- astrological clues, including names with meaning.
Appearance features
When choosing a nickname for a cat, the desire to name the pet immediately arises in accordance with the color of its fur. So, for a kitten with a white fur coat, the nickname Snowball, White, Zephyr, Snow, Glamor or Winter is suitable. Chocolate, black, gray and brown shades of the coat can be emphasized with the help of the nickname Knight, Brown, Brownie, Chocolate, Choco, Nesquik, Nestle, Black, Tenek, Batman, Nero, Dymchik, Afri, Ugolek, Gray, Volchok, Chernysh. As for the striped color of the kitten, the nicknames Tiger, Leo or Leopold, Jaguar, Sailor, Sailor and Matroskin sound good.

Features of behavior
According to felinology experts, pets should be given names depending on their character and behavior. A kitten that doesn’t sit still for a minute, rides on curtains and climbs onto bookshelves can hardly be associated with the name Tikhonya. The cool character of the cat should be emphasized by the appropriate nickname: Typhoon, Ugaran, Wind, Monster, Meteor, Bestia, Chaos, Nix, Tornado, Rocket or Comet.
Names for gray cats and cats depending on breed
Most often, gray color is found in the following cat breeds:
- British,
- Scottish lop-eared,
- Cartesian,
- Russian blue.
If you want to tie your pet’s name to its breed, then for the first two you can take any English name, title, or title:
For a Scotsman or a Briton, you can choose a name that is consonant with the name of the breed: Scotty, Brit and English
For the Chartreux breed, names that emphasize its French origin are suitable:
Chartreuse cats are one of the most ancient European breeds
And finally, you can focus on the origin of the Russian blue cat or cat with the help of Old Russian names, especially since each of them carries a meaning:
- Bayan (storyteller),
- Buoy (powerful),
- Buyana (courageous),
- Verna (faithful)
- Goda (lucky)
- Guy (movable),
- Gala (spiritual),
- Blue (tender),
- Daryon (gifted),
- Diva (wonderful),
- Dragan (precious)
- Zhivko (live, fast),
- Zvana (called),
- Zorya (sparkling),
- Spark (smart)
- Kras (beautiful),
- Lada (sweetheart),
- Mira (reconciling),
- Nezhata (tender),
- Novik (new),

- Smeyana (cheerful),
- Stoyan (unbending),
- Brave (brave),
- Charusha (generous, kind),
- Chayan (desired),
- Yang (positive),
- Yara (solar).
Russian Blue cats got their name from the bluish tint of their fur.
Using the same principle, you can choose a name for a gray kitten of another breed.

What is undesirable to call
History provides a lot of real evidence of the influence of a name on the fate of humans and animals. For this reason, it is not recommended to give a pet that appears in the house the name of a deceased relative or a deceased animal. Thus, the owner seems to be programming the animal for an early death.
It is also not recommended to call cats by sacred names from the Bible. Even if the owner is a deeply convinced atheist, there will always be someone nearby who will be outraged or upset by the fact that the family cat's name is Jesus, John, James or Bartholomew.
There is an opinion that you cannot call a pet by a human name. According to the norms of the Russian language, names for people (anthroponyms) and nicknames for animals (zoonyms) belong to different groups. Previously, when the church had great influence on people, it was strictly forbidden to give animals human names. Today, in literally every yard you can hear the cat’s name Vaska, Kuzya, Boris or Styopka.
Whether human names are suitable for boy kittens is up to the pet owner to decide. But you shouldn’t rule out the situation when your daughter grows up and brings home a groom whose name will be completely identical to the cat’s name.
Recommendations for choosing a name
Experts believe that it will be possible to correctly name a boy’s kitten if the name is euphonious for the animal itself. It will be easier for him to perceive his own nickname if it contains hissing letters and if it is not too long. If you really want to call him by a long name, for example, Arnold, then for everyday use there should also be an abbreviated name - Arnie.

And also, there is some truth in the saying: “What you name a ship is how it will sail.” Therefore, if you decide to name a four-legged boy with a mythological name, then it would be good to study what it means, what the character and actions of its owner are in mythology. A good example of this is the name Mars. Harmless and sweet Marsik in childhood, having matured, definitely inherits some of the traits of the ancient Roman god of war: belligerence, pride and intolerance in his desires.
If a global addition to the family is planned and two kittens are taken into care at once, their names should not sound similar: Busi and Musi will most likely run up at the same time if you call one of them.
There is another way to choose a name, in which the boy kitten himself takes part. The owner begins to read out all existing nicknames and when the animal makes any significant sound or gesture, this will be his choice.
Name for a black cat boy
The black cat creates a mystical atmosphere around itself. This animal is capricious and mysterious, so you need to choose a name for it together. Select several options and look at the cat’s reaction - most likely, the kitten will choose a suitable name and begin to happily respond to it.
The first thing that comes to mind is the name Black, Charo, Chernysh, Ugolek. But it’s worth experimenting with more mystical names, for example, Anubis, Hades, Zorro. Or choose something more simplified, but no less original:
