Photo: Because the vast majority of calico cats are female (only 1 in every 3,000 calicos are male), the names we’ve selected lean that way. But we’ve also included names for the rare male calico and names that can be used for both male or female! And coming soon ... names for all those torties with tortitude out there!

My calico is named Tallie Tat ( a play on puddy tat from Sylvester and Tweetie).
It also rolls off the tongue easy.
Skylar – she’s a long haired beauty! I think a long haired calico is rare. She has a sweet personality and is very intelligent. Does your cat retrieve toys? Mine does.
My grand kitty is named Missy Moo because of her Heifer markings. Her pronounced schnoz and prominent eyes round out a very unique and totally cute cat.
I rescued 2 calico sisters at 9 weeks old that were brought into my vet’s office, along with their brother & sister. My prior kitty that passed away was also a calico, so in honour of her, I decided to split the name “Calico” in half, giving my new one cat the name “Cali” and the other “Coco”, since “Co” by itself isn’t a name. So then . . . “Cali” + “Coco” = "CALICO ! !
PENNYLANE!!!! She is a calico coon mix!!!!
