Harry Potter Cat Names:
Here are some ideas if you are looking to name your cat after someone from the series.
Names That Are Obvious References To The Series
— Crookshanks: For all the Hermione fans out there, this would be an obvious tribute.
— Mrs Norris: Every Harry Potter fan would get this reference if they came to your house and saw you had a kitty named Mrs Norris.
— Minerva: Professor McGonagall can transform into a cat, so it might make sense for you to pay tribute to her. It is also the form of her Patronus Charm. She plays a massive role in the series and it would be a pretty cool name.
— Dolores: You can name your cat after Professor Umbridge, whose Patronus takes the form of a cat. This only applies if they are really grumpy/ mean as she plays the role of a villain. Umbridge would also work in this situation.
— Bellatrix: This just sounds like a great cat name, even if it is inspired by one of the evilest Witches in the entire series. This would require your cat to be a bit evil.
— Harry: If you want to go super obvious, you could name your cat Harry after the main character of the series. This would apply if you have a cat that sheds a lot or has a lot of hair. It also could be an ironic name if you have a cat without any hair.
— Fleur: Is your kitty beautiful? If you, you might want to name it after Fleur Delacour, who is part-Veela. She is best known for being the Triwizard Tournament Champion of Beauxbatons Academy of Magic.
— Dobby: Every Harry Potter fan will get this reference but I think it would make for a funny name for a cat.
A Bit More Subtle References To The Series
— Tonks: If your cat is clumsy, you may want to name it after Nymphadora Tonks. She is best known for being a member of the Order of the Phoenix and for her work as an Auror. Sounds like a cute name for a kitty and also a not-so-obvious reference to the series.
— Cedric: If your kitty is extremely kind and loyal, you might want to name it after Cedric Diggory. He was someone who was very loyal, kind, and someone who valued fair play.
— Luna: This would be a great name to honor one of the most popular characters from the series, Luna Lovegood. It would be a name that isn’t too obvious of a Harry Potter reference but hardcore fans would appreciate it. Luna also loves animals, so I think it would be a great fit.
— Lily: After Lily Potter, who sacrificed herself to save her son, Harry Potter. Lily is a great name for a female cat and is a not-so-obvious reference to the series.
