There are so many names to choose from for white cats, that we’ve gathered together our favourite cat names. Here are some names to choose from to highlight your cat’s beauty:
- Snowflake — Although “Snowy” is a perennial favourite among cat lovers, “Snowflake” is used less often.
- Ivory — This name speaks for itself and is perfect for a regal white cat.
- Phantom — Perfect for a white cat; “Phantom” can recall a thin mist or even the enigmatic Phantom of the Opera.
- Galaxy — What better to name your white cat after than a swirl of silver stars? You could also keep “Nebula” and “Nova” (from supernova) in mind.
- Moonlight — The silver light of the moon makes a perfect name for a white or even light grey cat. You could also consider “Luna”; “Moon” in Latin or “Ambika”, an Indian goddess of the moon.
- Starlight — Much like “Moonlight”, “Starlight” makes for a beautiful name for a white or light grey cat. Also consider “Anusha” (a star), “Asta” (”star” in Greek) or "Dannika", a Slavic word for the morning star.
