Cat Name Inspiration
When deciding on a name for your cat, make the cat part of the process. Because most Birman cats are so social and very much attach to their owners, you want to ensure the cat reacts to whichever name you call it.
Remember, only select names that contain three syllables at most. Anything more will be confusing to the cat. They will recognize the sound and tone best when it’s short and sweet.
This is why it’s a good idea to pick out several names you like and try them out on your fluffy friend. When the kitty head butts, purrs loudly, runs infinity between your legs or gives you a rub-by, you know you have the right name.
Help Choosing the Right Name
Even though Birmans have only been in the United States since the late 1950s, many people abide by the traditional method for naming. This is actually a French tradition but it’s a fun way to name your cat, especially if you’re having a difficult time finding one.
What you do is pick a name with the first letter that corresponds with the current year. This changes annually to the successive letter. For instance, 2020 was R, so for example, 2021 is S. Therefore 2022 will be T. So, ones like Sasha, Sammy, Selene, Samson, Sugar and Stella are all names that fall in line with the tradition for 2021.
It’s actually quite simple, here’s a guide below for the next 10 years:
2021 – S
2022 – T
2023 – U
2024 – V
2025 – W
2026 – X
2027 – Y
2028 – Z
2029 – A
2030 – B
2031 – C
Conclusion
Naming your Birman cat should be fairly easy. But, if you find you’re having difficulty, attempt to use the traditional French method by correlating the first letter with the current year. Remember, your kitty should respond to it. This will make bonding and communication much easier.
