Meaning & Story

Miss is an English honorific title traditionally used before an unmarried woman's surname or given name, derived from Mistress, which itself comes from Old French maistresse. As a pet name, Miss is typically used in combination with another word or name — Miss Kitty, Miss Fluffy — but stands alone as an acknowledgment of a companion's feminine dignity and a certain gracious, slightly formal charm.

Miss is a name with an innate politeness and old-fashioned grace — it suits a companion who carries herself with a quiet dignity and expects to be addressed accordingly. Whether used alone or as the beginning of a longer name, Miss lends any pet a certain genteel quality that is completely charming. Pets named Miss tend to be composed and affectionate, with a refined personality that somehow manages to be both proper and utterly warm. She knows she's a lady.
