- Black
- Ash
- Bella
- Chernysh
- Felix
- Moonshine
- Moon
- Night
- Night
- Rain
- Crow
- Salem
- Shadow
- Smokey

To be fair, some of these are very popular, but there's nothing wrong with sticking with a more traditional choice for your kitty.
What to consider?
If some owners don’t care so much that the nickname may be consonant with the famous “ks-ks” to which all cats react, then others, on the contrary, do not like the pet’s name, which contains a hint of this method of calling the cat
So the cat will not pay attention to strangers, understanding only its own name
As for double or even triple names, they are too complex for a cat to understand and remember. At the same time, the cat understands the abbreviated name very well, and representatives of certain breeds are even capable of responding in their own way to the claims or praise of their owners. When addressing a pet, the name should sound worthy, because it shows the degree of intelligence of the breeder and his attitude towards the pet.
If it is extremely important for the owner to focus on the black color of the cat’s fur coat, when choosing a nickname it is worth choosing options that mean “black”, be it a translation of the word into a foreign language or a name with meaning translated as a phrase. At the same time, one should not draw a parallel with biblical themes, equating the color of a fur coat with something devilish
If you want the name of a black cat to sound beautiful and unusual, just look around. Even such ordinary options as Murzik or Marsik can be turned into Murcello or Marcello. If you choose from car brands, you can choose options like Asura, Alpina, Aro, Audi, Bau, Cherry, Cord, Daewoo, Fisker, Fuji. Hygiene products come up with great ideas: here you can take a closer look at different options by selecting individual words from the names of brand products (for example, Nexus, Redken, Glamor, Aussie, Murphy).
If you want to find a fun option, you can take a closer look at the names of flowers in Korean. For example, the color black in this case will sound like “gomjeon”. Surnames that are common among Koreans are original and short. For example, from here you can borrow the options Kim, Park, Lim, Sim, Yun, So, which will be quite unusual. You can choose a nickname with meaning (for example, Dung will mean “brave”, Khan - “lord”, Song - “star”). The Japanese word for cat is Neko.
