Cat names
Cat names as they appear in shelter and licence records, with the female, male and uncommon ends separated out.
Cats are named differently from dogs and the registers show it: shorter, more absurd, far more likely to end in a vowel. The names below are the ones that appear most often in records where the animal is a cat.
Sex is recorded here only where real animals were sexed — at least 65% of a sample of five or more — so a name with too few records carries no gender rather than a guess.
