Well chan is typically used for girls, but chan is a more feminine of kun. So I guess if you were to use chan on a guy, it would be a more cuter way? I'm not sure about that.

Because in Japanese, they don't have that sound to make a "um" or "im" or "om" or others like it.

RE: Finding a Japanese Name

kinda, but you wouldn't normally say Ron-kun to me since I'm older, but you can too I guess if it's okay with me xD But typically you would say Ron-san instead.
