20 Animal-Themed Meeting Room Names

Animal names are one of the most popular meeting room themes for a reason: they're short, everyone recognizes them, and each animal comes with built-in personality. A room called "Owl" feels different from a room called "Cheetah," and people pick up on that intuitively.

Here are 20 options with notes on what kind of meetings each one fits.

The Names

1. Lion — Your main conference room. Bold decisions, big meetings, leadership presence.
2. Elephant — Long-term planning and strategy. Elephants never forget, and neither should your quarterly plans.
3. Dolphin — Collaboration and teamwork. Smart, social, and good at working together.
4. Eagle — High-level reviews. A bird's-eye view of the business.
5. Penguin — Team socials and casual catch-ups. Nobody takes themselves too seriously in the Penguin room.
6. Chameleon — A multi-purpose room that adapts to whatever you need.
7. Owl — The thinking room. Late-night work sessions, deep analysis, quiet focus.
8. Cheetah — Quick standups and fast decision-making. In and out.
9. Butterfly — Change management and transformation discussions. The metaphor writes itself.
10. Bear — A cozy, enclosed space. Small group discussions where you can settle in.

11. Fox — Strategy and quick thinking. The room where you outsmart the competition.
12. Hummingbird — Fast, focused check-ins. Five-minute syncs and quick updates.
13. Wolf — Team-building and pack-mentality work. Sprint planning and project kickoffs.
14. Peacock — Client-facing meetings and presentations. The room you show off.
15. Honeybee — Collaborative work sessions. Everyone's contributing to something bigger.
16. Panda — Relaxed, low-stress meetings. Retros, casual 1-on-1s, decompression.
17. Octopus — Multitasking room. Multiple workstreams, many arms in the air.
18. Giraffe — Long-range vision and stretch goals. Literally looking ahead.
19. Kangaroo — Jump into action. Quick decision rooms for things that can't wait.
20. Koala — The quiet room. Focus work, phone calls, or just a break.

Making It Work

A few practical tips:

• Size should match the animal. Eagle should be a big room with a good view. Hummingbird should be a phone booth or huddle pod. When the name matches the space, the whole system feels intentional.
• A small image at the door goes a long way. Even a simple silhouette icon next to the room name helps people find their way and gives the theme visual consistency.
• Let your team vote. People care more about names they chose. Run a quick poll and let the office decide which animals make the cut.
