What are honorary titles?

(Almost) every car has an honorary title, usually depending on their gender. These typically appear at the first part of the cat’s name and serve as a easy way to identify the cat’s gender or notable action.

Honorary titles

  • Mr. & Ms.: These are the most common honorary titles, with Mr. being used for male cats and Ms. for female ones.
  • Mx.: This title is used when the gender of a cat is undetermined, such as Mx. Creamsicle.
  • Mrs.: In the real world, Mrs. is used in marriage. However, with the cats, it is used to denote mother cats who have had children.
  • Brother & Sister: These are less common and are used to denote dignified or wise cats. It is often used for Brother Calm's disciples. Brother & Sister are also used for direct translations of Chinese names, such as Big Faced Brother.
  • Cousin: The only cat with this title is Cousin Peace, serving a similar function to Brother & Sister.
  • Sir: This honorary title is most frequently used for cats who have achieved notable feats, such as defeating Mount Kibble. Mr. Beef uses Sir as one of his nicknames. Dame Knight also used Sir whilst her gender was presumed to be male.
  • Dr.: This is one of the rarest honorary titles alongside sister, and has no specific way of using it. The only two cats who use it are Dr. House, named after the character, and Dr. Smudge.
  • The: While not exactly an honorary title, it is often used to exaggerate the qualities of a cat, such as The Gluttonous Beast or The Spawn of Satan.
  • Adjectives: These are often used similarly to “The” with the most commonly used being little or big. Some examples would be Big Bicolored Orange Cat That Loves to Sleep or Little Scraggly Guy.

Absence of titles

Some cats do not have an honorary title, and instead use their name to denote characteristics about them. These cats usually have something special about them.

  • 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 Soup club feeder, where every cat except Grilled cheese is named after soup. Other uses would be with kittens from the 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.
