Does your furball don a tuxedo? Ponder like a panda? Whatever the personality of your monochrome moggy, their sophisticated coat pattern offers a treasure chest of golden opportunities when it comes to picking a name.

Unlike most other coat patterns, you can pick a name for your black and white cat based on their color ratio. Do they have a big white chest? Then choose a suave name like ‘Tux’. Or is your feline friend peppered with spots? Go for a name like ‘Pepper’ or ‘Domino’.

But that’s just the beginning. We’ve selected a whole host of black and white cat names for you to choose from, from the unique and mysterious to the downright adorable.
