Cat Names That Start With T

  1. Tea

    • Origin:

      Short form of Dorotea or Mattea

    • Meaning:

      "gift of God"

    • Description:

      As Theo and Thea get more popular, so do Teo and Tea, short forms of the Latinate variations of Theodore and Matthew -- which include Dorotea and Mattea. But like Theo and Thea, Tea can stand perfectly well on its own and blends seamlessly into any Anglophone or European culture, if that is your aim. Some may argue that the Tea version is the prettiest and it's certainly the sleekest.
  2. Toccata

    • Origin:

      Italian, musical term

    • Description:

      Toccata is delicate and musical yes, but still somehow unappealing.
  3. Tally

    • Origin:

      Diminutive of Talia

    • Meaning:

      "gentle dew from heaven"

    • Description:

      Nickname sometimes heard on its own, sort of an updated Sally and playmate of Hallie.
  4. Tildy

    • Description:

      Tildy is a feminine name that typically serves as a diminutive of Matilda, which comes from Germanic origins meaning 'mighty in battle' (from 'maht' meaning might and 'hild' meaning battle). As a nickname, Tildy offers a friendlier, more approachable alternative to the more formal Matilda. While Matilda has experienced periods of popularity throughout history, Tildy as a standalone name remains uncommon. It carries a quaint, vintage appeal that fits with the trend of reviving classic diminutives as given names. Tildy has a playful, endearing quality while still connecting to the strength inherent in its parent name's meaning.
