Tigers, leopards and lions are the largest representatives of the cat family. They live not only in the wild, but also live in zoos and perform in circus arenas. Professionals work with such “domestic” animals, for whom big cats become real pets.
The noble appearance of leopards, lions and tigers often becomes a source of inspiration for the creators of toys and souvenirs. Many people willingly purchase these “artificial animals” as gifts for friends, children or themselves, sometimes collecting entire animal families.
Majestic animals, both live and toy, need beautiful, elegant and original nicknames. However, it is not always possible to come up with a suitable nickname, and this becomes a real problem. A list of the most common, aristocratic, euphonious, and funny lion and tiger names will help you cope with it and choose the best option.

How to accustom a cat to a name
You should not call a girl many names at the same time. You need to choose one and repeat it until she associates it with herself. Also, you should not call her by name when you need to punish her for an offense. This will lead to the fact that the pussy will associate dirty tricks and negative emotions with its nickname.
It is best to teach the name with the help of food, then the baby will happily run to its sound. You also need to say the name of your striped pet while playing with it. And under no circumstances should you pronounce it with an angry intonation. After all, the cat instantly picks up the sound background. Only a loving owner can make sure that the name does not cause anxious feelings in the pet.

For lions, whom nature has awarded with a luxurious mane, nicknames that emphasize their beauty and, most importantly, “wealth” are quite suitable. These names are also good for soft plush animal toys.

What will girls born in 2022 be like?
Each name carries a special energy, which subsequently affects the character and fate of the child. The name lays the foundations for who the child can become, what abilities he will have, and whether he will be happy in family relationships. Many names will be successful for girls born in the year of the Tiger. Choosing a name for life is not an easy task, but first try reading them and perhaps the sound will touch your soul. But to avoid resentment and misunderstandings, do not forget to discuss your choice with your loved ones.
Each of us associates the Tiger with power, strength, unbridled passion, and a domineering character. But, despite his fighting character, the Tiger is an innovator. Tiger girls will be inquisitive and playful, open to everything new.
Those born under this sign are like the symbol of the year. They are just as active, restless, striving forward and sparkling with energy. Girls will become leaders and will be able to lead easily. A boring and measured life is not for them. They come up with a lot of ideas, they are always ready for adventure, but if they set a goal for themselves, they build clear tactics to achieve it.
Girls in adulthood behave like self-sufficient, strong and self-confident individuals. Sometimes, to achieve a goal, they can go over their heads; they have an innate cunning. They do not like to be controlled, are not afraid of unforeseen situations and will always find many solutions to get out of them.
Girls have a sharp mind and brilliant logic, so their professions are intellectual. Some can do science, others can do creativity.
Little tigresses are big fidgets, capable of big pranks. But despite this, they easily charm everyone. They also know how to manipulate from childhood, and this primarily concerns parents. Thanks to their leadership abilities, they achieve their goals. If you made a promise, then there will be no chance of evading it.
