Most hipsters don’t self-identify as hipsters but I wasn’t able to find a better name for a hipster cat names list. But you will find some great names here.
Hipster community has a unique bond with cats. Of course cats are amazing and loveable but hipsters relationships with cats are just closer than a lot of people. At least, that’s my humble observation. Some of the hipster cat names you are about to read are coming from real cats that have this special kind of relationship with their hipster humans.
I want to provide you some quick tips before you start reading the list. Naming cats is easier this way:
- Note the names you like to a piece of paper or your phone, etc. There are so many names to choose from so being able to see all the names you like in one short list makes it easier to choose your favorite.
- If there is more than one person in decision making process to name the cat, keep your own notes individually and compare the names you like in the end. If there is a common name in every list, nobody will argue.
- Consider the physical traits or the character of the kitty while choosing the name. It might be something that suits the physical traits or the character but it might also be something that contradicts with them. Both become meaningful and fun in the end.
- Read the names out loud so you can also know how the name sounds to your ears. Reading a name and hearing it are two different things because human brain perceives these two differently.
We have 4 different categories for hipster cat names:
- Female Hipster Cat Names
- Male Hipster Cat Names
- Gender-Neutral Hipster Cat Names
- Hipster Cat Names Inspired by Books or Authors
Let’s find your new friend a name that suits it best!
