- Agate;
- Andron;
- Dobrynya;
- Casemir;
- Miron;
- Makar;
- Sadko;
- Savva;
- Tamerlane.
How to choose the right name
The name should not only please the owner and suit the cat depending on its appearance, breed or character traits. The nickname should be harmonious for the pet itself. To choose the right nickname, you should take into account the recommendations of experts:
- The presence of hissing sounds in the name. They are the ones that are best perceived and remembered by animals: Yasha, Lusha, Zhuzha.
- Names in which the stress falls on the first syllable: Vaska, Musya, Mishka, Umka.
- The presence in the nickname of sounds that place the correct accents is “d”, “z”, “s”, “g”: Askold, Dir, Count, Marquis.
Pedigree cats purchased from nurseries have their name indicated in their passport. As a rule, they are very long and complex.
It is not at all necessary that the name indicated in the passport coincide with the nickname that the family calls the pet.
For example, Arnold is a long name, difficult to remember and pronounce, which the cat is unlikely to recognize. But the shortened version of Arnie is exactly the option you need. Leopold can easily transform into Lesha, and Imperial into Impi.

Cat mascot: name it in an original and useful way!
The name affects not only a person - it determines the fate of four-legged pets (and perhaps, to some extent, ours). Therefore, in pursuit of originality, you should not give the cat such nicknames: Shaman, Killer, Vampire, Fire, Flood, Scoundrel (although for those who are devoid of prejudices, this is also a good option).
Well, if you want money and happiness to settle in your home along with a fluffy meowing miracle, then try to name it cool, but with meaning. For example, like this:
- Lucky;
- Eurek;
- Baksik;
- Rublik;
- Lyubchik;
- Wallet;
- Safe;
- Treasure.
Fun and no complaints!
When coming up with a cat name (especially if you want it to be fun and funny), you don’t necessarily need to focus on the color of the pet’s fur and disposition. You can simply approach this issue creatively and name the mustachioed purr so that your friends will appreciate your incomparable sense of humor. For example, use these cool nicknames:
- Student;
- Eggplant;
- Belyashik;
- Glitch;
- Brick;
- Loaf;
- Baguette;
- Skittles;
- Rarity;
- Schuler;
- Beard (Beard Man);
- Whiskey;
- Tank;
- Broom;
- Colonel;
- Korzhik;
- Marshmallow;
- Bear;
- Gin.
These names need no explanation. They simply give a good mood to the owner and others and form the character of the cat. He becomes an inventor and often an Internet star.
