Gothic Names For Your Pet

It's a myth that all goths keep cats and ravens as pets. Some have pets with scales, shells and fins as well as fur and feathers. So....if you've just acquired a new pet, whatever your new animal, you'll probably be thinking about giving it a suitable name. If you want to give your new little friend a gothic name, here are our top 10 lists of boys', girls' and unisex names.

GIRLS' NAMES

Lillith
Elvira
Banshee
Violet
Lolita
Sabrina
Scarlet
Crystal

Zelda

BOYS' NAMES

Boris

UNISEX NAMES

You could be forgiven for thinking the above names would be best suited to a black cat but it could be quite ironic to name, say, a sweet, fluffy beige bunny Lucifer for example. Looks can be very deceptive so think of your first impressions of your pet's personality and not just the way it looks when naming it.
