The only place you can find the official pinterest category list is when you try to create a new board on Pinterest.com. I tried to find it in the support and business forums but no luck there! Take some time to choose an appropriate category for your pinboard. Also be sure to fill in the board’s description with meaningful and searchable words to increase your followers.
Below is the the official pinterest category list. I highly expect the For Dad section will go away after Father’s Day.
