What does Ace mean?
1 syllable

Ace comes from the everyday English word for someone who excels at what they do, the top card in a deck, the best in a lineup. It carries that same sense of being the best of the best.

Ace is punchy and confident, a great fit for a pet with obvious talent or swagger, from an agility-course natural to a cat who owns every room they walk into.
