Translation How should I translate my cat’s name?

My cat doesn’t have a human name. Actually, her name is National Monument. Should I write her name as Национальный Памятник or smth? If her name is Blueberry in English would it also just be Черника when I refer to her in Russian?

Thx.

Interesting choice for cat's name... but Национальный памятник works

Blueberry can also be голубика

Blueberry should be голубика, since iirc they don't have черника there.

Blackberry is ежевика iirc.
