To come up with the list, Rover analyzes its database of all the monikers people selected for their felines in the past 12 months. The site explains that the majority of the most popular names are short (one or two syllables) and are inspired by pop culture. For example, Bella, No. 2, hails from the Twilight series, and Nala, No. 6, comes from the movie The Lion King. There are also options that come from flowers (like Daisy) and ones that are food names (Pumpkin and Ginger.) There are plenty of other cute names for you to check out, too.

Any of these names will be perfect for your cat, whether they have black fur, are bright orange, or even a calico pattern. Make sure you go through each one to figure out which choice fits their personality the best.
