Your new kitten is female. And you are finding for perfect female cat names. She may have many of the qualities of a girl. She may be gentle and quiet.
As she jumps on you or your furniture, you barely feel it when she lands. Maybe her little face is the cutest you’ve ever seen. Or she’s female, but lets you know she’s strong.
Maybe her personality tells you she’s cool. Or you’ve already had a few laughs from something your girl has done. Her appearance may demand a special name.
Take your time finding the perfect name. She’ll wear it for up to twenty years. Get started looking!
Cool Female Cat Names
By “cool,” your cat could be one of those dignified cats that approaches you only when she wants. Does your cool girl have “catitude?” Then she has to have a cool name that has a lot of attitude behind it.
Try a few of your favorite choices out on your cool customer. See if you think they fit her.
If your cat allows strangers to touch and pet her, you should pick a name that says “I’m approachable.” Even though she’s cool, she wants human contact. You want her name to encourage people to scratch her under the chin.

Cute Girl Cat Names
That upturned, little nose and huge eyes scream “I’m cute!” She may keep that kitten-like face into her adult years. Or her features may mature as she grows.
If your cat has a delicate appearance, you’ll need to choose her name using how she looks. Choose a name that’s obviously “girly.” Or choose a name that could fit either girls or boys.
Buy a baby name book and look through the entries for baby girls. Depending on your cat’s temperament, you should be able to find a cute name for her. Or, think of the names of flowers.

Funny Female Cat Names
Maybe your cat just has a funny personality. Maybe you’re the one who likes to have fun. In either case, your cat should have a funny female name. Make a play on names. Or use names from children’s movies.

Choose a funny cat name by using verbs. It’s perfectly fine to choose a name that fits a whole other breed, too! Take a girl’s name and change its spelling with just one letter. For instance, “Claudia” becomes “Clawdia.” It’s not that hard!

Black and White Female Cat Names
Black cats are da bomb! With that dark fur and those intense eyes, they suggest “mystery.” Just the black fur on your sweet baby suggests so many names! Use her color, of course!
Rather than using a color, use the time of day (or night, as the case may be). Maybe choose the name of a bird with black feathers (just not crow).
Here is our separate article for the full list of black and white cat names.
Black cats can easily wear the name of their black cousins as well. Or choose a name that suggests “darkening.”
Use a play on phrases. Drop “black” and add another word: Black Magic. Drop “black.” Perfect name!
