When an animal appears in the house, a logical question arises - what to call the fluffy beauty. Names for cats, as experts advise, should be given quickly so that the pet has time to get used to it.
Previously, people cared little about what to name a cat. We chose from the standard options: Murka, Musya, Busya, Snezhok, Vaska, Ryska, Ryzhaya and the like. Now a lot of beautiful and original nicknames have appeared. Pets are called by non-standard names of writers and cartoon characters, nicknames from the English language without translation into Russian. In total, there are more than a thousand options, among which you can choose the best one depending on the breed, color, and character of the new family member.

What are kittens called?
Many owners believe that a kitten’s name determines its fate and brings happiness to its owners, while others carefully look at the character of their new friend so that the nickname perfectly matches his character. Some people choose a name completely by accident, settling on a pleasant-to-hear word or even a set of letters; others name the kitten as a joke.
But not all of these options are suitable for kittens: many names are difficult not only to remember, but also to pronounce, and some do not take root. This applies to exotic nicknames such as Athelstan, Ferdinand, William, Padishah. Comic nicknames can also be different - Zhora, Raisin, Pogrom, Accident, Guess, Gadislav, they make others smile, but it can be unpleasant to deal with obscene names, rude and cruel names.
If the nickname does not suit everyone, then each family member calls the pet the way he likes. The favorite is called both Barsik and Kolbaskin, Theodore the Great, and he responds to “cat” or “kitty-kitty”, and then only when he wants it.
To avoid such situations and make life easier for both the kitten and yourself, it is better to stick to simple, memorable words.
A separate story with animals from nurseries. They are given names at birth, taking into account their pedigree, but it is absolutely impossible to use them in everyday life. Hence the abbreviations appear: Einstein becomes Enka, Sambatus - Senya, Pandora - Panda or Panei. Sometimes owners like the classic options: then Gray Prime Fitzgerald becomes a simple Vaska.
What to name a cat is the choice of the owners themselves, but there are some principles that will help the pet quickly adapt to the name and learn to respond to it.
