* '''Human Names:''' Examples of this include [[Bob]], and the cats from [[John's Canteen]]. Some cats use this naming scheme with made-up words, such as [[Goobert]].

* '''Food names:''' These are rarely used, with their most notable use being in the [[Soaring Cat|Soup club feeder]], where every cat except [[Grilled cheese]] is named after soup. Other uses would be with kittens from the [[The Exploration Era|2024 Summer Kitten Explosion]], where a lot of the kittens were named after beans, such as [[Heinz]] and [[Pinto]]. Certain cats also have a food name alongside a real honorary title such as [[Mr. Egg]] and [[Mr. Bean]]<ref> [[Mr. Bean]] is not named after the character unlike what I previously though but instead named after his bean shaped mark on his back</ref>

*'''Semi-literal names:'''In order to explain this title better, a example of this name would be [[Roadkill]] where while he isn’t a roadkill he is named like that due to his appearance. These are seen almost always with titles
 
*'''Literal names:'''These are almost exclusively used in exotic cars such as [[Ferret|Ferrets]] or [[Ants]]
== Actual names ==
The main difference between this section and the previous is the usage of titles, where in the previous they were barely used in this one almost every single car has a title with very few exceptions<ref> btw the reason so many of the examples don’t have titles is because this used to be part of the previous section</ref>
 
*'''Verbs/adjectives as the name:'''These have the exact same uses as adjectives in the previous section. A example of these names would be [[Mr. Fresh]] himself
*'''Semi-literal names:'''In order to explain this title better, a example of this name would be [[Roadkill]] where while he isn’t a roadkill he is named like that due to his appearance.
*'''Literal names:'''These are almost exclusively used in exotic cars such as [[Ferret|Ferrets]],[[Ants]] or [[Mr. Snail]]
