12 Pet Names for Coffee Lovers

Thinking of bringing a new furry friend into your life?

Here are 12 great name choices if you are almost as crazy about coffee as you are your new pet!

1. Bean

A name that captures the core of coffee itself, the bean. Bean is an endearing name for dogs and cats alike that will certainly get people asking how you picked it. If not a primary name, this is an excellent nickname too.

2. Crema

A reference to the top layer of a perfectly pulled espresso shot, the crema. This name is ideal for a lighter colored dog or for any espresso fanatic like me.

3. Drip

This name just oozes coolness. Aside from being the most common brew method, drip has also become a popular slang word to describe someone’s style or swag. A great option for a Millennial or Gen Z coffee lover with this fun double meaning.

4. Espresso

Do you have a pet that is small but mighty? This could be the perfect name for your furry friend that might be tiny but packs a punch just like espresso. Don’t let the size fool you!

5. Linea

An ode to one of the most recognizable and respected espresso machines of all time, the La Marzocco Linea. This tried-and-true espresso machine is a classic that has been in production for over three decades and remains the gold standard. A classy name for a classy cat!

6. Brewer

If you’re looking for a more macho name for your pet, this is it. Might we suggest the name Bruvi® for our favorite coffee brewer (yes, we are a bit biased).

7. Latte

America’s favorite milk-based espresso drink can also be the name of your beloved animal. It’s clear with this pet name that you love your coffee, and everyone just needs to get used to it!

8. Kona

Major island vibes with this pet name that pays respect to the most famous growing region in the United States, Kona. Grab a Mai Tai and say aloha to island time with this lovable name for a boy or girl.

9. Mocha

If you’re a fan of a delicious chocolate latte, Mocha could be the name of your next pet. This name puts a smile on my face and is very appropriate for any pet that is extra sweet and/or dark brown in color!

10. Java

The small island of Java in Indonesia has a rich history as it relates to growing coffee. The Dutch brought coffee there in the 1600s and the rest is history. Coffee is still grown in Java and the term has become synonymous with coffee. This pet name seems to be catching on quickly!

11. Joe

A play on the coffee term cup of Joe and it’s contested origins. This is a great name for those that like human names for their pets. This rather proper pet name cracks me up and will certainly do the same for others.

12. Gesha

A unique and beautiful name that also describes the most highly sought-after coffee varietal, Gesha (or Geisha). This is a special name for a special friend!
