If you want an unusual name for your feline, choosing an Arabic name is a great way to go. There are many beautiful Arabic names that make great choices for cats. You can use Arabic names for cat breeds native to that part of the world, or for any feline that deserves an extremely unique name.
Due to the long history of Arabic, there are many different names that you can choose from. These range in meaning and sound, allowing just about anyone to find a name that they like.
We’ve included some of our favorites in this article. We hope that you find the perfect name for your feline below!
How to Name Your Cat
There are several ways that you can go about naming your cat. Preferably, you would find a single name that you like and choose it for your cat. However, it rarely works out this way. Instead, you often can’t find a name that is suitable or find way too many names.
If you have more than one person involved, then finding a name everyone likes can be even more difficult.
For this reason, we recommend making a list of all the names that you like for your cat. Some people’s lists will be longer than others. In the beginning, you don’t have to be too choosy. Just write down anything that sounds good. Then, start crossing names out.
Get the list down to a few names that you really can’t choose between. Include others’ ideas on the list as well if there are more people involved in naming the cat.
Next, you can try the names out on your cat for a day or two each. Some names may sound great but just not fit well on your cat. This will also allow you to get to know your new cat better before you select a name. Because it takes cats a week or more to learn their name, this process should not confuse them.
