Celebrities and some of our favorite well-known people seem to live in a different world from the average person, but the reality is they're just ordinary people who love their pets and cats just as much as we do.
But while we live well away from the glow of the limelight, the paparazzi, red carpets, and limos, we can still share a part of a celebrity's life by giving our cat or kitten a name that other public figures have chosen for their cats; many of which we have listed here.
Take for example Mark Twain. He loved cats and purposely gave his pets bizarre names such as Blatherskite, Beelsebub, Sour Mash, and Zoroaster. And we have several of other cat names he used included on this page.
In fact, the free cat names listed here have been used on TV, in the movies, cartoons, comic strips, literature, and of course by celebrities and politicians for their feline family pets. To help you search more easily, we have broken the names into categories to view and the names are good for any gender: male or female.
