54 Orange Girl Cat Names

Choosing your new cat or kitten’s name is a big deal. You’ll be saying that name for years (decades if you’re lucky!), so you want to choose a name you love.                                       

If you happen to own an orange cat or kitten who is a female, you have a very special kitty on your hands. You might be surprised to find out that orange cats are most frequently male. This is because the gene that causes a cat to be orange is linked to sex, and statistically most orange cats are boys. Only about 1 in 5 orange cats are female, so if you have an orange girl cat, consider yourself blessed with an extra special pet! Of course, a rare cat like an orange girl cat deserves an extra-special name.

Tips for Choosing Orange Girl Cat Names

When coming up with a great name for an orange girl cat or kitten, you have a lot of options. Choosing a name based on your ginger cat’s beautifully colored coat is always fun. You can also consider names based on your cat’s tiger stripes (because orange cats are also always tabby cats). 

With so many orange-themed and stripe-inspired names to choose from, how do you narrow it down? You can first start by considering your orange girl cat’s unique personality. Is she outgoing or an introvert? Is she wild or serene? You might also consider the specific hue of her orange coat. Is it a lighter ginger color or a deep, flame red? Finally, think about a name that just sounds good rolling off your tongue. After all, you’ll be saying your cat’s name a lot!
