¥en sounds adorable! I'd say go for it! ^_^ I'd probably name a cat something like that.

Re:Japanese Cat Names 3 Months, 1 Week ago
I kind of prefer chiiruchan-san's suggestion of "Yami." Who wants to be named after money? But if you want a name that sounds similar to "Yen", you might like the Korean name "Eun." It's a female name, though-- is your new cat male or female?

Tokoro de (by the way), if the "chan" at the end of "chiiruchan" is supposed to be the "chan" which is added to a name when addressing a person, it probably should not be part of the name. One never attaches "san", "chan" or "kun" to one's own name when one says it.

Re:Japanese Cat Names 3 Months, 1 Week ago
Thanks for the tip on not calling chan one's own person. ^_^; I just used that because I was being called that by friends. Also I think Yami is good too... if I had a boy black cat Yami would be nice. Kuro seems overused. The name Shinkou might work too for "Midnight". Black kitties remind me of Halloween. ^_^

How about the name "Rai-chan"?

初めまして!!
"ライちゃん"という名前はどうでしょうか?

"Rai = ライ = 雷(kaminari) = Thunder"

You said that cat's body is black
and cat's eye is green.
I think that's good
