Mine is Zoey, which means Life. Since I live alone, she makes my home feel lively. I don’t feel like the only living thing breathing in the house. When she chooses too, she can be fun as well. The things she does makes me laugh, so Zoey is a befitting name.

I have seen different cat names on this forum. What was the inspiration behind them?

I name my female cat simba, and even though it is a name reserved for male cats, I have to go with the name as a result of my cat always being brave and fearless.

That is surely a good choice of name. The name indeed makes the cat.

I have a thing for naming my cats with human names. It makes me feel like they are more human than animals. It's why I have my 3 cats named Dante, Shopie and Samantha. I think they are all lovely names.

I name my cats based on my feelings and also sometimes I love something nice. Shey is one of my cat's names. It's the most loved names I've ever given to any of my cats.

So giving them human names makes you feel closer to them and view them as more than just pets and animals. That is a valid reason. Shopie is different though, why?

We have 3 cats: Magneto, Phoenix and professor X... Care to guess the inspiration? 🤔

No matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to get any idea. Especially professor X. Now I’m more curious than ever.

You're probably a fan of the X-Men because they are all names from the characters in that movie. I hope I'm correct? 🤣
