In this article
No matter how old you are, there’s bound to be a Disney movie or character that you adore. Maybe you can relate to their struggles, or you just enjoy their sense of humor or antics. Either way, acknowledging your favorite movies and characters is a great way to find inspiration for naming your new cat.
Here, we’ve collected all sorts of names for your Disney-loving cat. Browse through these Disney cat names inspired by princesses, princes, and villains—and cats! There are also regular names inspired by Disney's unassuming heroes.
How to Name Your Cat
Drawing inspiration from a list of Disney-themed cat names can help when naming your cat, but it’s only part of the battle. You still have to choose your favorite and make sure it matches your cat’s personality. It should also be something that you don’t mind calling out in front of guests!
The best advice is to take your time. Give yourself a few days to get to know your kitten and learn their personality before settling on a final choice. Use that time to gather a list of names that you like, both from lists like these and ones inspired by the cat themselves.
Naming your kitten should be fun and rewarding. It’s also a great way to start bonding with your new pet. Their name might just surprise you!
