How to choose?

To call a Bengal cat Vaska, Murzik or Barsik means to insult the elite breed. Here are 3 basic rules to follow when choosing a kitten's name. The first rule is defined by professional breeders. Pedigree cats born in nurseries from famous parents are given complex names. Nursery specialists are guided by approved principles. So, all kittens of the same litter should receive names starting with the same letter.

The passport issued to the kitten contains a name that is too long, from which you can find out the following information:

about the names of parents and grandparents:
about the name of the nursery.

The kitten's owners are allowed to change the name provided that it begins with the letter indicated in the passport.

The second rule is ease of pronunciation . An elite cat deserves a majestic name, but its pretentiousness makes it difficult to pronounce. Is there any point in assigning a beautiful nickname if in everyday life you have to be content with its shortened version? I think no. It’s better to immediately choose one that sounds beautiful and is easy to pronounce.

The third rule applies to the cat himself. He must definitely like the name. Choose a few interesting nicknames and try them on your pet. Repeat each name and watch the kitten's reaction. Based on the animal's reaction, it will become clear what he likes best. Give preference to the nickname chosen by its bearer.

Bengali and Indian nicknames

Bengal kittens are considered an elite, noble breed. From the moment of birth, documents are drawn up for them: information about their parents, their place of birth is written down, and names are also assigned. Most often, they are quite bulky and are not quite suitable for everyday use at home. Therefore, the owner should think about modifying the official nickname or replacing it completely. For example, attractive options for aristocratic names for males and females:

Alberto, Antonio.
Victor, Wilhelm.
Hector, Georgy.
Marquis, Morcel.
Norton, Nicola.
Pablo, Patrick.
Socrates, Sandro.
Emil, Edward.
Agatha, Ariadne.
Darina, Dominika,
Letizia, Laura.
Marquis, Milan.
Audrey.
Stella, Suzanne, Sylvia.
Paulina, Patricia.
Ria, Ruth, Rockel.
Chiara.

A Bengal kitten, like no other breed, can be given a nickname in the Bengali dialect, which originated in the 11th century.

You can give the kitten an Indian name. Hindi is one of the 5 most widely spoken languages in the world and symbolizes the country's deep cultural heritage. For cats:

Yaachan, that is, “prayer”.
Yaamir - Moon in Hindi. Ideal for white or silver kittens.
Yaashk – for a carefree kitten.
Aashvan - means victory, also a strong personality.
Yajan is an affectionate animal that literally “adores the ground on which its owner walks.”

The name for a cat can be common or individual, reflecting the temperament or emphasizing the color of the animal's coat.

What to name the cat?

At birth, noble Bengals are given long, unusual nicknames in accordance with the rules of the nurseries. But it happens that neither he nor his owners like the cat’s name, or the mustachioed one was not purchased from a nursery and does not have a passport with a name. Then the owner himself comes up with a name for the pet. The nickname is chosen based on the characteristics of the tiger pattern, character, appearance and gender of the cat, as well as the preferences and interests of the owner of the animal.

To choose a name for your pet, it is recommended to observe it for a couple of days and study its character.

To more accurately characterize the cat’s habits and habits, you need to observe him for several days, and then come up with a name. An important nuance is that the animal itself should like the nickname. Whether you like the name or not can be determined by the behavior of the mustachioed man. If the “name” is to your liking, the cat will react to it by turning its head, walking towards the caller, or moving its ears as a sign of agreement. When choosing a name, you should be guided by the following principles:

A nickname cannot be longer than 6 syllables.
It should not contain swearing or offensive words.
Cats respond best to handling if it contains hissing sounds.
The name should please all family members.

If a purebred cat has a name and the animal came into the house as an adult and not a kitten, it is not recommended to rename it. Confused by the “names,” the mustachioed person may stop responding to them. The best solution to the problem is to come up with a shortened nickname from an existing name.

Name for a girl

Nicknames for Bengal cats should emphasize their origin - be just as beautiful and original. It is unlikely that there will be two identical Bengali girls in the whole city, since there are a lot of unusual-sounding nicknames. The brightest and most memorable of them:

The nickname for a pet should be original and emphasize its origin.

Bella;
Chanel;

Latia;
Lianna;
Anabel;
Malala;
Melanie;
Mia;
Audrey;

Taira;
Arita;
Cleo;
Bridget;
Antoinette;
Beatrice;

Nickname for a boy

The habits of the animal and the hobbies of its owner can help with choosing a suitable name for a boy.
The boy is named after countries, movie characters, actors, musicians, and even based on the owner’s hobbies. The main thing is that the nickname sounds beautiful and is in tune with the appearance of the cat. Among the unusual and colorful names that are assigned to purebred furballs, the most popular ones are:

Richard;
Edgar;
Simba;
Oscar;
Pumbaa;
Timon;
Pegasus;
Hunter;
Helios;
Hermes;
Diamond;
Cupid;
Lime;
Leo;
Odysseus;
Hurricane;
Typhoon;
Caesar;
August;
Amber;
Theodore.

It is not recommended to give a nickname in honor of a deceased pet, as the kitten runs the risk of repeating its fate.
The imagination of the owners of purebred boys is unlimited. The main thing is that the owner and pet like the name and that it is original and unique. The choice of a nickname for a pet must be taken carefully and seriously, since it is given for life and affects the fate, character and behavior of the animal. You cannot name a young kitten in honor of a deceased kitten, so that the fate of the deceased does not “pass on” to the young one.
