Star Wars Cat Names: Grogu, Ahsoka and a Galaxy of Picks

A galaxy far, far away turns out to be a deep well for cat names, and the saga even comes with its own felines: the loth-cats of the planet Lothal and Millicent, the ginger cat owned by General Hux. From the gravelly menace of a Sith lord to the bright chirp of a name like Grogu, Star Wars offers something for every kind of cat, whether your companion rules the household like an emperor or sneaks around like a smuggler. A name from the saga lands instantly with fellow fans while still being short and sharp enough for a cat to learn.

The picks here sort into a few clear lanes. Heroes and Jedi give you noble, steady names, while the Sith and the villains lend dark, dramatic options for a cat with attitude. Droids and creatures offer playful, quirky picks, and the ginger-cat connection makes Millicent a natural for an orange cat. Coat color helps you choose, with a black cat carrying a Sith name, a cream or white cat suiting something gentler, and a striped tabby wearing a scrappy bounty-hunter pick. Bonded pairs work well too, echoing a famous duo from across the films. Many of these names appear in our dictionary and are linked below with their meanings, so browse the curated list and find the one that fits your own little Padawan.
