I found some Japanese words that would be ideal to name a Siamese cat. How about “Tatsukami.” That’s the Japanese word for “tornado” Maybe a Siamese black cat could be named that. Also, “Yuki Dama” is Japanese for “snowball.” Maybe you could be a little ironic and name a black Siamese cat Yuki Dama. Funny, huh?
