Popular Cat Names for the Life and Soul of the Party

Popular cat names are hard to pin down - they actually change from year to year because like our human names, the top cat names fall in and out of fashion.



Top Cat, Felix and Sylvester were once among the most popular male cat names of all! Children loved their cartoons and stories and wanted a little Felix of their own, making those among the most popular cat names. And how many ginger striped cats do you know named Garfield? or Miss Kitty?

In the UK, where I'm from, the most popular cat name comes from one of the names below - these are all cats who at one time or another have visited the Cat Holiday Hotel in Hampshire (Jane Austen country).

No favourite cat names here? Then why not check out my cute kitten names list or even widen your search to all the British male cat names or check out the female cat names.

PS. And the top cat name (most popular kitten names) in terms of popularity these days? Probably a dead heat between Kitty, Puss and Willow.
