Fairy Tale Inspired Cat Names Considerations

There are a few things you might want to consider if you plan on naming your new little lion after your favorite fairy tale character. You'll want to consider your fur-baby's appearance, personality, and temperament to pick the "purrfect" name.

For example, if you have a brave kitten that loves nothing more than climbing up as high as possible, then "Jack" from Jack and the Beanstalk might be the perfect namesake. Or, you might have a blonde kitten that has trouble getting comfortable. In which case, "Goldilocks" might be a fitting moniker.

There are plenty of unique and unusual fairy tale-themed cat names on this list, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding one that fits your feline. Or, just pick a fairy tale that means a lot to you and find a character's name that fits your fur-baby!
