If you're thinking about naming your new furry pet, our list includes 200 cat names of different colors. Take your pick!
Day X has come — a small purring lump has appeared in your house.
For the first couple of hours, all you can hear is screeching and cheering.
And then everyone meets for a name advice. No kidding — it's the same name for a new family member!
What can you call a boy cat
Perhaps, even before the kitten arrived, someone had several options in store. But somehow they do not match this fiery red/the colors of the night hast/snow-white/mysterious gray appearance.
So before you make a final decision, go through our list. For convenience, we sorted nicknames by coat color.
Many nicknames are taken from English, and we will give translation hints next to them.
You can also take a familiar name and change it into a foreign manner to give an aristocratic sound, because a cat, when he gets into a loving home, feels at least the king of your heart.
What else to consider when choosing a name for a cat?
Do not overdo it with originality and length. Lancelot, the seventh of the Dragomyshkin family, sounds, of course, proud. But no one will remember this, much less pronounce the full name Lancelot, shortening everything to Lancet or Lucky. By the way, also consider the short version of the nickname in advance, because some words cannot be shortened.
Consider the nature of the pet. Watch the kitten for a few days. If he sleeps all day, the nickname Typhoon is clearly not suitable for him.
Say the nickname out loud. If it sounds harsh, it may seem aggressive to a kitten. Also, feel how comfortable it is for you to pronounce this set of sounds yourself. If it's difficult, look for another option.
Use associations. For example, a white fluffy kitten — a box of white cotton — Coton (from English — “cotton”), etc. Associations can be not only with color, but also with character and taste preferences. We will also note similar associations next to the nickname option.
Grey Boy Cat Names
Gray may seem boring for cat owners of other colors. But believe me, if we are talking about a gray kitten, you will not be bored.
In general, gray is a very noble color. By the way, some of the most popular breeds – British and Scottish – are most often associated with silver-gray. The serenity and visual pleasure you get when you look at graceful gray cats.

Names for red cats for boys
In general, all cats are beautiful, but there is something about red cats that makes you think they are special.
Red cats are associated with frenzied temperament, cunning and sunshine, so there will be many similar associations. Interestingly, professional cat breeders describe their color as red, but for lovers this color may look like cinnamon, honey, caramel, chocolate and even marmalade.
The famous red Garfield, who loves lasagna, may suggest that the red color with swirling patterns is quite common. But like their human counterparts with red hair, these cats are quite rare. The color is transmitted via the X chromosome from parents. This means that 80% of redheads are males.

Names for black cats for boys
Your black kitten deserves a special name that will highlight its charismatic appearance. The banal Black is not particularly flattering here, but Black sounds solid.
When looking at a cat with such a dramatic appearance, various associations with evil also come to mind, and there are also such names and associations in our table.
And if you're a person with a sense of humor, call a black cat White or Snowball, and let your guests have cognitive dissonance when they appear.
