Aswad
Probably not for a cat you like ...
Why not?
Ask any 15 year old. It sounds like ass-wad.
Last chance: Roger. Roger the cat.
Then perhaps Asud /a:."su:d/.
Roger...? Um, nope.
Quickly, we must caption EVERY picture of Khang's cats
...likely to be a boy and to be all black...
Any suggestions for names?
Chaka.
Or, Chaka Let.
We chose
Itzal.

צל, so it works cross-lingually.

I like "Itzal" too. I also think it sounds Mayan. "Shadow" is good for a cat this color, as well. It may also turn out to fit his characteristic behavior.

(In college I had a cat who could tell the difference. In summertime if he was sitting on the lap of someone wearing shorts, and they stood up, he'd just slide off. But if someone were wearing jeans -- as we usually did in spring or autumn -- he'd hang onto you when you stood up.)

What? Do you analyze every movement of your felines? I don't...
