Studio Ghibli Cat Names: Jiji, Muta, Baron, and the Whole Ghibli Menagerie

Studio Ghibli has given us some of the most beloved cats in all of animation, which makes a Ghibli name a natural fit for a real one. This guide leads with the canonical Ghibli cats: Jiji, the wisecracking black cat from Kiki's Delivery Service; the enormous white Muta and the gentleman figurine Baron from The Cat Returns; the grinning twelve-legged Catbus from My Neighbor Totoro; and the white cat Yuki and Prince Lune of the Cat Kingdom. From there it widens to names from the larger Ghibli world that simply suit a cat, sorted by temperament and by coat colour, with a section on the black-cat problem every Jiji owner faces, the soot-sprite alternatives, and a set of Ghibli pairs for a two-cat home. Each pick is tied to the character or scene it comes from, with notes on the short forms that survive being called across a garden, so you can choose a name that carries a real story and still works at dinnertime for the next fifteen years.
