Well you are mostly correct:

F3F, F4F Wildcat, F5F Skyrocket, F6F Hellcat, F7F Tigercat, F8F Bearcat, F9F Panther/Cougar, F10F Jaguar, F11F Tiger, F12F and finall F-14 Tomcat

So apart from the experimental F5F and the never built F12F all had cat names though Tigercat was not an animal but who know what they though in the elementary schools in the USA at that time? :D
