When the mistress or master is out and about, it can get quite boring for cats at home. A playmate is just the right thing, which is why we recommend getting at least two house tigers. Our list of popular cat names for couples or siblings may help you find a name.

In a nutshell

  • Cats need company
  • famous couples are perfect role models when it comes to choosing a name
  • Inspiration can be found in film, literature or history
  • Names should match the cat's personality or appearance

Choose cat name

Of course, it always depends on the situation beforehand when thinking about cat names. How many are there? Is it a couple, playmates or siblings? If you are aware of this, you can become even more creative.

Equally important is whether the animals have special characteristics in character or appearance that the cat names should reflect. A duo consisting of a black and a white cat could therefore be called yin and yang. A quick-tempered, ragged tomcat and an elegant feline might be christened Tarzan and Jane.

Tip: Whether it's a sibling, a couple or an "only child", always make sure that the cat names aren't too long or complicated. After all, you don't just want to find great names for your animals, you also want to call them around the house from time to time.
