Wowie! May these cats bring you much joy, as you have given them of you.
Like Celeste, the first name I thought of was Junior.
Are you looking for something BBM related? How about Riverton or Lightningflat (mostly like shortened to Lightning), or even Juarez. Or you can name him after our community, BetterMost. What about Beans? Somehow I like the idea of a kitten named Beans.
If not BBM related, the possibilities are endless.

Thank you Starboardlight! Funny! I DID think of 'BetterMost' but I think it's a bit long. 'Beans' sounds cute! And 'Moon' and 'Lil'Darlin' and Twister! 'Junior' is not an option. We had a guy in school called 'Junior'.. no no.. And preferably a word that doesn't mean anything in English (or any other language - except Arabic -> I'm trying to learn that language - love the teacher, my classmates! It's great fun, so I'm considering a name/word in Arabic too).
If not, yes yes, yes! BBM-related! I also thought of 'Trimble' - that's the real-life last name of the guy who plays the Basque.. I like the sound of 'Trimble'. I thought of 'Nelly' as in 'gYLLENhaal'.. but I don't really like it actually..
Ok, for now I have to head home to those four little monsters! Thank you for all the ideas so far!

It's really a good deed that you took in the cats.
A name that doesn't 'mean' anything is hard to find.
Junior
Cherry (like in ~cake)
Rose (like in Old Rose)
Siesta
Maybe there's a nice word for "tent" or "mountain" in Arabic. You can ask your teacher. Especially an Arabic word for "mountain" would fit. So you would have Brokie for Brokeback and XXX for Mountain.
I like Nipith's "Beans" very much. Look at your signature :) (I remember the scene from Brothers Grimm. I saw BG after I saw BBM and found it funny, that Heath's character name is Jake and beans also play a role in BG).
starboardlight:
alright, here's a stab at names that have no meanings what so ever. I'm just putting sounds together. if any find them happens mean anything in a different languages, speak out.
Yos
Shando
Munta
Eps
Pree

Thank you! Great ideas everybody! I like all of the ones you've mentioned Starboardlight! But I think I'd go for a BBM-related one. 'Siesta' is cool too, because they sleep a lot! ;D
I actually checked for the Arabic translation for 'little', 'darling', 'cherry', 'mountain', 'sheep', 'tent', 'moon', 'twister' and 'beans'.. Some are unpronouncable (twister, sheep and darling) and some I don't like ('tent' is 'rhaïma' which is okay, but I don't want to call my cat 'tent'.. :-\)
little/young - sahir
cherry - kharaz
moon - khmar
beans - lufla ....... :o
rose - ouriya
siesta - filoula ...... ???
[if I got it right - I will have to ask my teacher]
I really like 'kharaz'. It sounds like a precious stone. I'd change it to 'karaz' though..
... thinking some more ...
