The nickname of a domestic cat, corresponding to a famous character in a film or comic book, will sound quite interesting. Besides, Appearance can also play an important role, especially if the kitten has visual similarities to some cartoon celebrities.
- Garfield. A well-known character in a family comedy. When calling his pet by a similar name, the owner must understand that the similarity between a real and a virtual animal must be significant. The coat of a domestic baby should match the red color of the cartoon character. By nature, the cat simply has to be lazy and still commit reckless acts.
- Basilio. Most often, this name is awarded to cats of noble breeds. According to the well-known tale, the owner of this nickname was a cunning swindler. Accordingly, in the character of a fluffy lump, there must be notes of cunning.
- Boniface. Quite a well-known personality who has survived to this day since the 90s. His distinguishing feature is kindness. Accordingly, the bearers of such a name should be affectionate, sweet and decent.
- Leopold. Quite cute and very decent cat who loves beauty and cleanliness. Unfortunately, not all cats can boast of these qualities, but if you follow the well-known saying, perhaps such a nickname will reveal the qualities of a cartoon character in a kitten.
- Simba. Popular character of a famous cartoon. The character of the cartoon character is initially quite soft, and yet the baby shows a tough character and firmness of mind with age. Calling a kitten by a similar nickname, the owner must understand that with age, the baby does not necessarily become the king of animals.
- Sherkhan. The representative of evil in the most famous children's cartoon. To name your pet with a similar nickname, it is desirable that the external data of the cat correspond to the external image of a lion.
In addition to the names of literary heroes and cartoon characters, there is a tendency among cat breeders to give their pets the names of famous people. It is believed that creative natures call their animals special and bright names, among which they can choose the most suitable nickname for their baby. There is an interesting statement among zoologists that a nickname that does not match the nature of the animal can make the kitten nervous and weakened... Indeed, not a single living creature can tolerate the contradictory nature of its own name. That is why the name of the cat must be in harmony with his temper. For example, a kitten with a playful character and attitude can be called Bambi.
In addition, scientists recommend that you familiarize yourself with information on the similarity and compatibility of the animal's name and the owner's name. Otherwise, conflict situations with a fluffy pet may arise in the house. And in fact, there is such that the cat perceives only the owner, but does not allow her husband to come to him. In this case, the superstitious family is invited to contact astrologers who can draw up an accurate picture of compatibility with the chosen animal and offer the most suitable nickname to choose from. The same is said by zoologists who have been studying the cat family for a long time. They do not advise cat owners to call their pussies by names such as Tiger, Leo or Lynx. These nicknames lower the pet's self-esteem, which can lead to it getting lost in space.
Another important condition is that the invented nickname should be to the liking of all family members.therefore, when choosing a suitable name, it is necessary to involve all residents of the house. The cat perfectly understands the emotions of people through their conversation. An increased intonation in the voice may indicate the owner's irritation, and gentle words make the cat feel calm.
The same goes for the name of the animal: if it sounds rude, the pet is able to respond negatively.
Rare and beautiful names
Most owners of purebred cats try to name their pets with rather rare and unusual names. To select the most suitable nickname, the breeder should pay attention not only to the names of famous pets of media persons, but also to the pseudonyms of writers, inventors, famous artists, even kings of the past. In addition, it is proposed to take the color of the animal's fur as the basis for the name.
Nicknames of Japanese origin are considered the most relevant today., after all, it is the Japanese who attach special importance to the names of their pets, since they believe that the nickname of the animal completely plays a role in its fate. But, in addition to the fateful decision, the cat's nickname must be attractive. For example, Ayame, which means "iris" in translation, Ayumu - "lunar promenade", Yaiko - "beloved", Akira - "dawn".
Cats with stately appearance are often called Daichi by the Japanese, which means "smart" or "wise". The owners of cats participating in various shows try to give their pets exclusive names, for example Katsu - "winner". The cats with a fair amount of beauty are called Michiko.
Calm, kind and decent representatives of the feline family are named Naoki. Small-sized cats are awarded the name Suzume, which means "sparrow" in Japanese. Fluffy boys with light coat color are awarded the nicknames Hikari or Hotaru. And the snow-white males are called Yuki.
The Japanese also pay special attention to the date of birth of fluffy babies and reward them with nicknames corresponding to the seasons when they were born. For example, Haruko, which means "born in spring", Akito - "autumn child", Natsumi - "summer gift", Kodomo - "winter birth".
Some pedantry of the Japanese lies in the attention not only to the date of birth of the cat, but also to the daily interval. Night-born cats are called Miyako. For moon cats, the nickname Tsukiko is firmly fixed.
In addition to the proposed name options with their explanations, the Japanese give original nicknames to their fluffy balls, based on the color of their fur. The owners of snow-white fur coats are called Edelweiss, Ivory, Oblachko and even Casper. Black felines are most often awarded with demonic names, for example: Inferno, Raivon, Balthazar. Red-haired babies are endowed with nicknames that evoke associations with orange and red shades, for example: Mars - in honor of the planet, Phoenix - as reborn from fire, Amber.
The brown felines should be called chocolate names.
Simple and short names
Most cat owners do not want to bother with the special and unique name of their pet. For them, it is preferable to use standard, ordinary names that do not have deep meaning and special beauty. But, despite this, cats of all breeds perceive household nicknames with exceptional enthusiasm. Whoever says anything, but the lightest and shortest names for cats are remembered by animals from the first pronunciation.
As is customary for a long time, the simplest names of the representatives of the cat family have the sought-after Russian roots. The most popular name in this list is Vasya. In many Russian outbacks, in almost every house there is a cat endowed with this nickname. The second place in the list of simple nicknames is taken by Murzik. This nickname is found not only in the outback and remote settlements, but also in urban areas. In third place in terms of use is the name Fluff. Basically, this nickname is given to the animal for its characteristically long and fluffy coat. The fourth step of the pedestal is the nickname Snowball. The meaning of this name lies in a snow-white fur coat that beckons, attracts and soothes. The fifth place in the list of popular light names is Chernysh.
Accordingly, a cat bearing such a nickname must have a full-fledged black fur coat, without any blotches of light or other shades.
It may seem that choosing a simple nickname for a little fluffy baby is very simple, but in fact this question takes a lot of time and effort. Basically, the ethical side is affected, because it is completely wrong to give an animal a nickname similar to the name of a relative or close friend. Otherwise, this very person, having heard the nickname of the animal, may experience the most real feeling of discomfort. In order not to get an awkward situation, it is proposed to choose a foreign nickname for the fluffy ball, the abbreviation for which is easily pronounced in Russian, for example:
- Lucius, and diminutively call the kitten Ray;
- Abbreviated Marseille can be used in different interpretations: Mars or Marsicus;
- the stately name Velizar easily turns into a shortening and simple Velia.
By a similar principle, you can change any complex foreign words to shortened ones with easy pronunciation.
Cat owners with a special sense of humor can try calling their furry pet a fun and memorable name. To do this, you just need to connect your imagination and take a closer look at the temperament of a fluffy ball - a stream of bright ideas will flow like a river. The main thing when choosing a nickname is to take into account the characteristics of the animal, otherwise he may not perceive his name and may even be slightly offended.
Quite often, funny nicknames of representatives of the feline family have a close connection with the surrounding world of the animal and its habits.
- Scooby. First of all, the famous cartoon character comes to mind - the dog Scooby-Doo, which is afraid of any rustle and loves to eat a lot. Many purebred cats can boast of such qualities. They panic when they hear strange sounds, and in order to relax - do not mind eating soft food.
- Panda. Often such a rare and interesting nickname is awarded to cats, the color of which consists of black and white flowers. In this case, the main characteristic of the color is black circles around the eyes.
- Medved. Quite common computer slang, often used to greet chat rooms. Moreover, this word is not offensive or offensive.
- Godzilla. The owners of such a nickname must be assertive and strong, even somewhat rude. They are characterized by manifestations of character and expressions of their "I".
- Pixel. Hearing this word, every person has thoughts about the film of the same name, which features platformer games from the 80s and 90s. The most memorable element was a huge yellow smiley face rolling around the city and eating different figurines. Cats can live by the same principle: they can also rush around the house and eat up tasty leftovers from various secret places.
- Tank. The character of the owner of such a name should be assertive. Representatives of the feline family with a similar nickname are obliged to go ahead to their goal.
- Yeti. Quite an interesting nickname for owners of fur coats with increased fluffiness.
- Hulk. Of course, cats with a green coat do not exist. Therefore, such a nickname can be awarded to a cat that is directly proportional in size, namely a representative of small breeds.
How to choose?
It is not necessary to resort to wandering around the World Wide Web to find a suitable nickname for a fluffy ball. It is enough to call your children for help, because only children's imagination quite often gives out the most unusual and interesting variants of names that would never have visited the head of an adult in life.
One of the important aspects of choosing the right nickname is the kitten's habits. From the very first days, he, as an individual person, is endowed with special talents and demeanors. The same goes for external factors. Some kittens have special features on their faces that lead the owner to a suitable nickname. Owners of a stately gait and graceful seduction will be the most suitable nicknames Lord, Earl, Sheikh or Baron. Seeing such a miracle, it will immediately become clear that this is not an ordinary noble cat, but a real representative of a noble family.
Just a few decades ago, the owners of four-legged fluffies did not even think about bright and sophisticated names for their pets. They called them the most common nicknames, easily remembered by the family and the animal itself. It doesn't matter if the kitten was found on the street or carefully selected in the cattery, the new owners showed special love and affection for him. Guided by these factors, it will turn out to choose a worthy nickname for the animal.
In some cases, it may even seem that the new owners are giving a name not just to a pet, but to a newborn baby.
Often, choosing a nickname for a small kitten is considered an exciting activity, because all family members take part in it. And everyone has the right to offer an interesting version of the nickname. And then the most suitable name is chosen by general voting.
Often, the newly-made owner of the animal tries to choose a nickname for his pet that is consonant with his name. For example, if the owner of the cat is named Arseny, the fluffy boy should be called by a similar nickname - Senya. Thanks to this factor, a spiritual connection arises between the owner and his ward, which will subsequently play a huge role in mutual understanding and friendly relations.In general, one can only guess about the issues of karmic connection, but nevertheless, consonant names allow the kitten to feel great care and feel love for himself. In return, cats are ready to give their devotion.
A huge role in choosing a suitable nickname is played by the appearance of the kitten. Carriers of a black fur coat are usually called Black, Batman, Coal or Devil. In the latter case, it is best to use a diminutive nickname. Cats with gray fur coats should bear names such as Gray, Tenek or Volchok. It is quite interesting to choose a name for a kitten with a bright red color. For such kids, the nicknames Ginger, Mandarin, Orange or Ray are relevant. In turn, snow-white babies should be named Albino or Squirrel. Bengal cats, which have a unique coat color, are often called nicknames, consonant with the words "cheetah" or "leopard". It is preferable to call pets with a tortoiseshell color by names with a hint of color contrasts, for example: Kohler, Sailor, Turtle.
Representatives of the feline family, whose gaze has a pronounced cunning, should be called the affectionate name Fox. If the cat has gray eyes, which emphasize the understanding gaze, it is better to choose the nickname Doc or Scientist. Film fans should give preference to nicknames that correspond to the names of famous actors. By a similar principle, the names of cartoon characters are supposed to be used, for example: Simpson, Tom, Donald, Leopold or Kesha.
In fact, there is a huge number of extraordinary male nicknames in the world. You can dub the fluffy ball with a nickname that suits the interests of the owner. For example, cat owners who follow fashion trends are more likely to prefer a special version of the name: Mont Blanc or Armani. Fans of fiction, and especially mythology, will definitely christen their pet with a nickname associated with all kinds of myths and legends, for example: Zeus, Hercules or Prometheus. If the pet owner is a translator and is closely related to foreign cultures, he will select a nickname for his pet, based on concepts from his favorite field of activity. Thus, an ordinary kitten of any breed can be called Lucky, which translated from English means "lucky", or Fanny - "funny".
If the owner of the fluffy ball does not have knowledge of English, you can use a translator.
Choosing a name for a cat is a serious matter. But there are such owners who approach this issue with meticulous scrupulousness and do not even mind resorting to astrology and numerology. Numerology, as everyone knows, is associated with working on numbers. And in order to determine the most suitable name for a fluffy ball, you need to know the kitten's date of birth. With the help of simple arithmetic, it is necessary to add up all the digits of the date of birth, having achieved the final result in one digit, and then look at a special table where exclusive names for cats are painted. Numerologists, in turn, claim that this rite is able to provide a fluffy pet with a successful life and a happy fate.
External characteristics, numerology, astrology - these are not all factors that allow you to choose a suitable name for a cat. Quite often, the most unique nickname is associated with the animal's taste preferences and behavioral habits. If the kitten likes to have a snack often, it can be called a Roll, Donut or Biscuit. In the modern world, it is proposed to use more newfangled options, for example: Burger or Croissant.
Special attention should be paid to the name of the cat purchased from the cattery. Such representatives of the feline species have a special pedigree. In most cases, the kitten's parents, his grandparents won prizes at exhibitions in different cities and countries.Offspring born from an elite male and female are automatically entered into the pedigree branches with little waiting. And all due to the observance of special rules for choosing a nickname. In the kitten's club documents, the date of birth, family ties are prescribed, and at the top there is an empty line for recording the full name of the animal. And the first letter of this nickname corresponds to the generic branch, which cannot be changed. The full nickname of the cat must be written in the documents. It can consist of the consonance of the nicknames of the mother and father, as well as grandparents.
And already at home, you can call the kitten a pet name, which must correspond to the name in the documents.
