Cats would make great pirates and in fact they were living on pirate ships so technically they were pirates. Therefore pirate cat names are only appropriate.
If you were a pirate or a sailor when wooden ships were used to sail long distances, what you wouldn’t want on your ships were rats because you had to store large amounts of food and other supplies that rats would feast on. So sailors and pirates had ship’s cats. Although we don’t know a lot of actual pirate cat names because pirates were not really good at keeping their records, we know that one of the UK origin cat breeds, Manx was one of the favorite cat breeds that was used in ships.
In addition to some classic pirate cat names, we made up some funny pirate cat names of our own according to the cat names regulations of the International Secret Association of Pirates. No, there is no such organization, or is there? The list of pirate names have here are categorized under:
- Female Pirate Cat Names
- Male Pirate Cat Names

- Funny Pirate Cat Names
- Real Pirate Names That May Give You Ideas
- Fictional Pirate Names From Movies, Cartoons, Video Games, etc.
