White cat names: 25 Best names for a white cat
Aspen
A fun-loving Snowshoe cat deserves a winter-sports name inspired by this Colorado ski resort.
Bianca
From the Italian for ‘white,’ this would be a lush name for a pretty Persian with blue eyes.

Maybe your white Tiffany cat has more of a French air, so the French word for ‘white,’ suits better!

This is a fun (and a bit spooky?) name for a Domestic Shorthair.
Casper
The adorable Casper the Friendly Ghost could be a role model for a Japanese Bobtail with white fur.
Chalky
This is a cute name for a little white Thaï cat.
Coconut
The delicious coconut could give your white (with brown fluff, perhaps) Oriental a nice flavour.
Diamond
This name is a precious moniker for a priceless pure white Persian.
Duchess
The lovely white female cat from Disney’s The Aristocats would be a good namesake for an American Shorthair.
