Pearl
A pale, lustrous-object image for a white coat; a compact alternative to Snowball.
For a white Persian, choose between a bright-coat image such as Pearl or Snowball and a soft-texture image such as Cotton or Fluffy. The shortlist below explains the difference beside each name. These are naming associations, not claims about your cat's character or hearing.
CFA lists white in the Persian solid-color division. White describes the coat within the Persian breed; it is not a separate breed. CFA Persian breed standard.
Pearl keeps the color reference subtle; Snowball makes it explicit. Cotton and Marshmallow add a texture or food image. If two cats in your home would have similar calls, compare the names aloud before keeping both.
