Hipster Cat Names Explained

According to the Macmillan Dictionary, a hipster is defined as “a young person who lives in a city and pays a lot of attention to trying to seem cool and not part of conventional society, for example in the clothes they wear, the music they listen to, and the food they eat.”

My #1 favorite, though, has to be Ophelia, as she’s my favorite Shakespeare character.
