List of names for Scottish Fold cats

When a cat appears at home, it is almost always a reason for joy and the appearance of certain changes: a tray, feeding places, leash, collar, food and other necessary accessories for your beloved pet. It is best to take not an adult, which is already accustomed to life elsewhere, but a kitten, because he can settle in your home without any problems. And if a kitten appears in someone's life, then he must have a name, because sometimes you need to swear at him, sometimes praise him or just play with this “colorful lump”.

Choosing a name is a very difficult procedure, but exciting, because the nickname must correspond to the behavior, character and appearance of the pet. In order to come up with the most suitable and cool name for a kitten, you should familiarize yourself with the features of the choice and either choose something from the available one, or, based on the examples given, come up with something of your own, no less suitable and funny.

Often, a pet is purchased immediately with documents from some breeders, in which case he already has a name and it is not advisable to rename it if the kitten is already older than 2-3 weeks, because he can already get used to his name. But the nickname is usually selected taking into account all the qualities of the pet and possible exhibitions and performances in the future. It turns out that at the factory they treat the pet's nickname painstakingly and often this is a very good option.

But if you still don’t like the name of your pet or it doesn’t have a name yet, then there are a few things to consider. Scottish cats differ from most breeds in their coat, ear structure, muzzle and manners.

Therefore, choosing a nickname for a kitten-girl in such a situation is not easy and should be repelled from several features.

• It is not advisable to call them by ordinary names, after all, Scottish cats are special, and those around with the same names may not be particularly pleased that the pet was named after her.
• It is recommended to give a "loud" and sonorous name if in the future it is planned to perform in competitions and exhibitions.
• It is worth remembering that it is often the nickname that characterizes the pet.
• It is not advisable to call the girl kitten the same as the name of the previous pet, especially if it had a bad fate.

Often kittens are quite ridiculous, with strange behavior, plump and funny running, this also applies to Scottish cats - then I really want to emphasize the features of the pet and choose the appropriate name. In this case, it is worth turning to funny names that will tell any stranger everything they need to know about your pet. In addition, a cool name for your pet is always a reason to tell those interested why the cat is so named and what other options were there.

But you should not overdo it with the choice of a name, nevertheless, you will often turn to the cat, and pronouncing heavy, strange, albeit funny names is quite difficult and will simply get bored with time. In addition, do not forget that a funny name should not denigrate the royal inclinations of the Scottish Fold cat. Options for funny names for a cat:

• Sonya (for those who like to sleep);
• Shumka (when she constantly plays something and makes noise);
• Busya, Simka or Button (depends on the objects that she most often gnaws);
• Gadget, Ponca, Shapoklyak, Nyusha or Fiona (depending on which cartoons you like more);
• Carmelita, Barbara, Sansa, Arya or Margosha (for fans of TV series);
• Dipper (if the kitty is ridiculous in its movements).

These are just a few possible options for how you can call a cat, but all animals are individual and it is very likely that your cat, with her behavior, will push you to choose a particular name.

If there is no time and opportunity to choose the most suitable nickname for your pet on your own, then you can turn to the existing options, maybe one of them will suit you perfectly. Popular fancy names for Scottish Fold cats:
