Cat Names that work on Boys?

What are some male cats you’ve known that make good boy names?

OR

What boy names do you think could be nicknamed to something cat-like?

This post made me lol

I don’t know many cats, but the ones I do know are named things like Vegemite, [name_f]Tiki[/name_f] or Cheezel.

Maybe [name_m]Lion[/name_m]? Or [name_m]Garfield[/name_m]? Lol

[name_u]Ari[/name_u] means lion…

um…my male cat’s name is Snicklefritz, so I don’t think I’ll be of much help! I second the idea of [name_m]Garfield[/name_m], maybe [name_u]Lionel[/name_u] nn [name_m]Lion[/name_m]?

What about [name_u]Cato[/name_u]? It contains ‘cat’ and I’ve never heard it on a real person before.

Haha… love the oddness of this request!

The obvious one to me is [name_m]Felix[/name_m], which I love as a human name.

Other ideas:

[name_m]Simba[/name_m]
Aslan
[name_m]Tom[/name_m]
[name_m]Tiger[/name_m]/[name_m]Tige[/name_m]/[name_m]Teague[/name_m]/[name_m]Tadhg[/name_m]/[name_m]Tig[/name_m]
Anything grand and ancient: [name_m]Aristotle[/name_m], [name_m]Cicero[/name_m], [name_u]Cato[/name_u] (seconded), [name_m]Ptolemy[/name_m], [name_u]Seneca[/name_u]… I always think cats suit these so well because of their air of superiority
[name_m]Fidelis[/name_m]
[name_u]Salem[/name_u]
Figaro (I actually know a cat called this!)
[name_m]Cosmo[/name_m]
[name_m]Azrael[/name_m]
[name_u]Banjo[/name_u]
[name_m]Sylvester[/name_m]
Sphinx
[name_m]Leonard[/name_m] or [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]
[name_m]Percival[/name_m]/[name_u]Percy[/name_u]

The only male cats I ever had were [name_m]Bandit[/name_m], [name_f]Shadow[/name_f], and [name_f]Star[/name_f] (who was named when we thought he was a she, and the name just stuck).

I don’t know very many cats but the male ones I do know are named:

[name_u]Domino[/name_u]
[name_u]Sammy[/name_u]
Houdini

The cats I know are [name_m]Martin[/name_m] and [name_m]Quentin[/name_m].

The most obvious one that springs to mind is: Catkin. Also sometimes spelled as Catken.

My cats were [name_m]Jake[/name_m] and [name_m]Elwood[/name_m] (hence my screenname BluesKittyMama). I’m interested to hear what you settle on.

I have a cat named [name_m]Rocky[/name_m] and know a child named [name_m]Rocco[/name_m]. I have also had male cats named [name_u]Billy[/name_u] and that can definitely be a person!

[name_m]Leander[/name_m] means [name_m]Lion[/name_m] man. It’s a guilty pleasure of mine, so I guess I could use it on a cat. :slight_smile:

Thoughts on these?
Sphynx/Sphinx
[name_m]Leander[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Jacob[/name_m] (nn [name_m]Jake[/name_m])
[name_u]Cade[/name_u]/[name_u]Kade[/name_u]
[name_m]Leonard[/name_m]
[name_u]Banjo[/name_u]

I like [name_u]Billy[/name_u] but I’m not really a fan of [name_m]William[/name_m], so I was trying to find a good name or name combo to fit that nickname

I also like [name_m]Kipling[/name_m] or Catnip as nicknames but I’m not sure for what exactly.

[name_u]Percy[/name_u] and [name_m]Sylvester[/name_m] sound like something I’d consider
