Top 50 male cat names

While naming your feline may not have the same lifetime significance as naming your child, it is a name you and your cat will be living with for a long time, so it deserves some thought. A good name can actually enhance responsiveness and improve communication. Pick a name you enjoy to say and that you will not be embarrassed to tell in front of others.
Just like baby names, cat names rise and fall in popularity. The number of cats named after “Frozen”, “Twilight” movies, and “Game of Thrones” characters rose extremely the year after the movies came out, so do not be surprised if you meet an “Anna”, “Bella”, or maybe “Arya”. Food, drinks, or even sports are favorite themes and there was a significant rise in food-themed names from 2013 to 2014.
