Video Game Cat Names: 3 Ideas from Cloud to Zelda

Cloud, Zelda, and Fox are the video game cat names people actually finish on that you can look up later: visible mass of water vapor, wise princess and gray battle maiden, cunning mammal. Link, Mario, and Pikachu are the franchise names everyone wants — and they are not in our generator. The 3 names below are every video-game-list entry that has a meaning page on this site, not a padded eighty of plumbers and electric mice. Try our Name Generator to filter by personality and origin if you want to keep spinning after this page.

Quick Picks: Our Top Video Game Cat Names

Cloud — visible mass of water vapor; one syllable, KLOWD, Nature, unisex. Spiky-hair mercenary is extra. The card says vapor
Zelda — wise princess and gray battle maiden; two syllables, ZEL-dah, German, female. Hyrule and Triforce are extra. The game is extra story
Fox — cunning mammal; one syllable, FOKS, Nature, unisex. An Arwing is extra. The line here is the mammal

Those three are the game names people actually finish on that we can look up. The lists below are that same three split by who can wear them, then the Link-and-Mario gap this page still owns.

Video Game Names for Female Cats

Zelda is the only girl look-up on this page. Two syllables. German. People hear a castle. The card says wise princess and gray battle maiden. She already appears on funny cat names as that same German line, not as a Nintendo chip. This page is the game search. It does not reprint that joke list, and it does not grow a second Zelda essay to make the roster look bigger.

Zelda — wise princess and gray battle maiden; two syllables, ZEL-dah, German. Print it if you will still say the German line when someone quotes a console. If the kingdom was the whole point, you still get princess-and-maiden, not a map

Peach, Tifa, and Samus are the other girl names a game glossary always pads around her. They are not in our generator. Midna, Yennefer, and Ciri are the same miss. If you wanted a girl you can actually click, Zelda is the click. The rest of that hunt sits in Unique, still without meaning pages.

Video Game Names for Male Cats

Cloud and Fox are unisex, one beat each, both Nature. They are the boy-shaped look-ups people try to hang on a mercenary and a pilot. The cards do not say that.

Cloud — visible mass of water vapor; one syllable, KLOWD, Nature, unisex. Guests will hear a sword. The tag still says vapor. If you cannot say water vapor when someone quotes a boss fight, pick a miss you are willing to own, or pick a different look-up
Fox — cunning mammal; one syllable, FOKS, Nature, unisex. Star Fox is extra story. Do not print Fox and tell the waiting room you named a pilot. You named a mammal

Mario, Luigi, Link, Yoshi, Kirby, and Geralt are the boy names every SERP finishes on. They are not in our generator. A brother pair with no pages is still two misses. If you wanted a one-beat shout you can look up, Cloud and Fox already are that shout. Unique owns the plumber-and-hero gap. Disney cat names already warns that Mario has no page there either. This page does not invent one to fill the hole.

Unique Video Game Cat Names

The leftover hunt is the franchise list people typed this page to find. None of it has a meaning page on this site. You can still print any of it. A visitor who wants a card will not find one.

Nintendo is the first dump. Short names, easy shouts, zero look-ups.

Link — the silent hero people already finish on. One beat, easy to spell at a desk. Not in our generator. Fine in a hallway. You will not find a card here to back it up
Mario — the plumber everyone wants. Two beats. Disney already says he has no page. This game page does not grow one either
Luigi — the green brother. Same hole as Mario. Pairing them does not create two look-ups. It creates two explanations at the door
Peach — the castle name people hang on a sweet girl cat. Not in our generator. Zelda is the girl card we actually ship, and her line is still German
Yoshi — the snack-motivated dinosaur people pick for a food-driven kitten. Cheerful on a couch. Still not a page
Kirby — the round inhale. Cute on a hungry cat until March, when the novelty mug wears off. Not in our generator
Samus — the bounty hunter people pick for a stealthy, solitary cat. Sounds sharp. Still not a look-up

Pokémon is the second dump. Feline bait, electric-mouse bait, same miss.

Mew — the tiny mythical feline everyone wants for a kitten. Not a page. You can still whisper it. You will not find a meaning line behind it
Meowth — the talking troublemaker with an eye for shiny things. Vocal-cat bait. Not in our generator
Pikachu — the electric mouse people already finish on. Disney’s game-adjacent miss list names him too. Neither page invents a look-up
Eevee — the adaptable evolution people hang on a rescue kitten. Same miss. A pair with Pikachu is two gaps, not a starter team on this site

Role-playing games pad the rest of a long glossary: swords, sorceresses, fortune cats.

Geralt — the white-wolf hunter people stick on a silver cat. Not in our generator. Independent is a story you liked. It is not a card here
Tifa — the martial artist people pick for an athletic girl. Protective is extra story. Still not a look-up
Cait Sith — two words and a fortune-cat from a long RPG. You will spell it at the desk, every visit. No page

Then the names that actually belonged to cats in a game, which is the hunt a padded list pretends to be.

Morgana — the cat who insists he is not a cat. Talkative-black-cat bait. Not in our generator
Stray — the orange tabby hero of a whole game about a cat. Ginger owners type this first. Still not a look-up
Palico — the hunting partner. Looks like a typo to a receptionist. No page
Judd — the napping referee. Fine for a heavy sleeper. Not in our generator
Yuumi — the lap-cat support people want. Double u. Someone will “correct” it. No page
Nook — the merchant shortened. Resourceful-cat bait. Not in our generator

Sephiroth, Sonic, Bowser, Midna, Ganon, Mewtwo, Aerith, Kratos, Ori, Sans, and Pac are the rest of that franchise dump. They are the same miss. This page does not grow an eighty-item glossary to fake a search result. Unique cat names is the hunt for a look-up nobody else on the block is using. It is not a second Zelda list, and it is not a fake Link page.

How to Choose the Right Video Game Cat Name

The card is the name you can look up. The franchise is the story you liked at two in the morning. They do not have to agree, and the tag will not argue on your behalf.

Zelda is German, wise princess and gray battle maiden, two syllables, ZEL-dah. Hyrule is extra. Triforce is extra. If you print Zelda because you wanted the princess of Hyrule, you still get the German line. Funny cat names already ships that card as a joke look-up. Use that page if the joke was the search. Stay here if the game hunt is why you opened this page. This page does not reprint her as a second joke entry.

Cloud is a visible mass of water vapor, KLOWD, one beat, Nature, unisex. The mercenary with the giant sword is extra. Guests will hear Final Fantasy. The tag still says vapor. Fox is a cunning mammal, FOKS, one beat, Nature, unisex. An Arwing is extra. Do not print Fox and tell the waiting room you named the cat after Star Fox. You named a mammal.

Shouting is the other test. Link is one beat. You can fire it down a hallway and a receptionist can spell it. Sephiroth is a title crawl. You will nickname it Sephi by Thursday. If Sephi is the real name, start there and accept there is no meaning page for either form. Cait Sith is two words and a spelling fight. Palico looks unfinished. Yuumi has a vowel people will fix for you. Mario is two beats everyone already knows how to spell, which does not make it a look-up.

The vet desk writes what it hears, every visit, for a long time. Stand in the driveway with the door shut and yell the name the way you yell at six in the morning. If you mumble Sephiroth, you do not need a lore recap. You need a shorter word. If you will not say water vapor when a tech repeats Cloud back, you already know the franchise was doing the work.

A household does not need Zelda next to Link unless you enjoy explaining that only one of them has a page. Mario next to Luigi is a brother pair with zero look-ups. Peach next to Mario is the same hole. Pikachu next to Eevee is a pair you cannot click. If you wanted two look-ups in one house, Cloud and Fox are vapor and mammal, one beat each, and you will still spend the door conversation on games nobody asked you to lecture about.

Skip Link unless you like a name no visitor can look up here. Skip Mario unless the plumber is the whole point and you do not need a card. Skip Pikachu unless you wanted Disney cat names all along — that hunt still has no Pikachu page. Skip dumping the film roster onto this page. Skip treating unique cat names as a second Zelda glossary.

I have named a lot of cats over thirty years. The game names that stuck were short enough to yell without giving a lore talk in the driveway. One beat beat a summon. Two beats beat a title crawl.

Frequently Asked Questions

What video game cat names have meaning pages here?

Cloud, Zelda, and Fox. That is the whole look-up list. Cloud means visible mass of water vapor. Zelda means wise princess and gray battle maiden. Fox means cunning mammal. Link, Mario, Pikachu, and Mew are the names people already finish on, and they are not in our generator. You can still shout Link at the clinic. You will not find a card here to back it up.

Does Zelda mean the princess of Hyrule?

Not in our generator. Zelda is German and means wise princess and gray battle maiden, two syllables, ZEL-dah. Hyrule and Triforce are extra story. Funny cat names already ships the same card. This page is the game hunt, not a second joke list. Print Zelda if the German line is the point. If Hyrule is the whole point, you still will not get a Nintendo origin on the tag.

Is Cloud the Final Fantasy mercenary here?

Not in our generator. Cloud is Nature, unisex, one syllable, KLOWD, and the meaning is visible mass of water vapor. Spiky hair and a giant sword are extra story a game piled on. Print Cloud if vapor is the point. Guests will still hear the mercenary. The card will not help you argue with them.

Can I name my cat Link, Mario, or Pikachu?

Yes. You can put anything on a tag. Link, Mario, and Pikachu are not in our generator, so there is no meaning page for them on this site. Yoshi, Kirby, Mew, Luigi, Peach, Samus, Geralt, and Tifa are the same miss. Cloud, Zelda, and Fox are the look-ups you can actually click.

Should I use this page or Disney cat names?

This page is the game-character hunt: the 3 names from this list that have pages. Disney cat names is the film roster. Funny cat names is the joke search, and Zelda already lives there. Unique cat names is the hunt for names nobody else on the block is using. Do not dump those rosters here. Cloud still means visible mass of water vapor on every page that ships it.
