Cats are wildly captivating. If there is one pet that can manage to balance a number of vastly different characteristics and wrap it up in a stoically calculated package, it’s cats. If you are new to cat ownership, you will quickly learn how multidimensional and absolutely hilarious they are. From the outside, you might notice a regal disposition, poised demeanor, or sassy attitude, but deep down your kitty is just as loving, quirky, and comical as any other pet!
Almost everything our cats do can be interpreted as funny, from their serious faces to accidental mishaps. For anyone who needs convincing, we challenge you to adopt one of your very own (or babysit!) and watch them blossom into unintentional comedians. So for the silly cat in your life, we suggest a funny cat name.
The definition of funny might differ between owners, so we’ve made sure to include as many funny names as possible.

Punny Cat Names
We love a good cat joke, so naturally, we’d lean into what the universe has to offer for cat pun names. Each of these suggestions is a perfect marriage of clever, cool, and iconic. By choosing one of these names, you’re saying, “My cat is trendy. He is more than the cat’s pajamas; he is the entire wardrobe and then some.” Cat pun names are an excellent choice because they are recognizable to most people and can even give a stranger insight into what a total clown your cat might be.
Funny White Cat Names
Many might be reminded of the white-furred, blue-eyed beauties that grace our television commercials and ad campaigns – renowned for their luster and elegance. Lest we remind you that these dreamy kitties are being compared to the likeness of toilet paper… paired together for their soft and plushness, which is rather funny when you truly think about it. So while their fur may not be what makes them comical, so to speak, we find that there are many funny white cat names that serve them just as well.
Funny Orange Cat Names
Garfield was the first feline to bring humor into the cat world and he just so happened to be orange. His matter-of-fact and work smarter, not harder mindset made him an iconic household name. The legend of Garfield still lives on through the most gingery of cats. As soon as we see one, we’re reminded of his sharp wit and never-ending desire for lasagna. While “Garfield” makes for a pretty great one, there are many other funny orange cat names that you could consider.
Funny Black Cat Names
Black cats are often known for being spooky, rather than for their funny bones, but that doesn’t mean they don’t possess an adorable kitty sense of humor. Possibly the names are a bit darker, but they are equally as enjoyable as the other categories among our funny cat names. The most humorous thing about black cats is that despite their haunting reputation, they are super friendly!
Funny Hairless Cat Names
Mr. Bigglesworth brought these furless felines to fame during his momentous role as Dr. Evil’s sidekick. There’s not much that needs to be said about these cats; being hairless is quite comical in itself. This unique feature makes them one of the most memorable breeds. No doubt hairless cats are fascinating, but pairing them with a name from this next list would be dynamic, fun, and beyond adorable!
Inappropriate Cat Names
Before we sign off, we thought it would be important to note ridiculous ideas that we certainly deem as inappropriate cat names. You might find them to be funny or charming in some odd way, but we recommend you choose a funny cat name that supports and uplifts your kitty and their special quirks, not one that pokes fun at them. After all, how would you feel telling your vet that you’ve named your cat Fatso?
Finding the Right Funny Name for Your Cat
Choosing a name for your pet comes with a lot of responsibility. Surely nicknames will form along the way, but their given name will be one you use when introducing your cat to new people or making veterinarian appointments and is likely to be the one printed on the name tag dangling from their collar. Bottom line: It’s important. Funny names are cute and we’re all for them but keep them chipper and sweet. Embarrassing or harsh names should be avoided. After all, you love your pet and should be proud of their name!
We hope that you were able to find a funny cat name from our list of faves that suits your witty kitty.
