Siamese cat names are limited only by your own imagination. Many people choose names for Siamese cats that seem "soft," like the animal itself. Others may select a name that speaks to the origin of the type of cat. When selecting a name for your Siamese cat, remember that you will need to like the way it sounds when you call it out. Consider the appearance or personality of your cat, as well as how the name seems to flow. If you have small children you may want to pick a name that will be easy for them to pronounce. Selecting a name can be difficult. You may want to enlist the help of family members and friends. And don't be afraid to "try out" a few names before making your final decision.
Does your cat think she's the head of the household? Perhaps a name like Queen or Sheba fits. Is she clever and courageous? Try Moxie. Many good cat names are drawn from the animal's physical appearance. Some appearance-based choices are Lilac or Points. Misty or Haze can also be appropriate choices for a Siamese.
The Siamese breed may play a role in your name choice. Perhaps a clever name like Anna, after the character from the musical The King and I. You may want to consider a Thai-sounding name, as a nod to the origin of the breed.
There are many sources on the Internet for popular cat names. Depending on your preference, these lists can help you select a name or eliminate some possibilities. Some people like to choose "classic" names, and may want to select something from a list of popular names. Other people prefer to have unusual names for their cats and will generally steer away from anything considered too popular.
