Unisex Mythical Cat Names

Welcoming home a kitten who radiates otherworldly charm, glowing eyes, or regal swagger? A mythical cat name fits perfectly. Cat owners drawn to legends, folklore, and ancient tales love these picks, because mythical cat names carry power, magic, and a little dash of the divine. Whether your new feline companion is a shadowy black shorthair, a fluffy longhair queen, or a spirited tom, these mythical cat names honor the mystery cats have inspired across cultures for thousands of years.

Try Loki, Thor, or Odin for a bold boy kitty from Norse lore, or Zeus, Apollo, and Hercules for Greek-inspired mythical cat names. Girl kittens suit Athena (goddess of wisdom), Artemis (huntress of the moon), Freya (Norse goddess with chariot drawn by cats), Isis, or Luna. Phoenix works beautifully for a ginger cat rising from fiery colors, while Pegasus or Griffin suits a leaping, adventurous kitten. Bastet, the Egyptian cat goddess, makes a gorgeous mythical cat name for any female feline with regal grace.
