Deciding on a mascot name for our anime convention, is using Chan appropriation?

Hello everyone! I’m the main organizer for an anime convention in the US and we’ve come up with a mascot. We wanted to name her Bing-Chan as it takes place in Binghamton NY. I want to make sure I properly honor Japanese culture and respect the right use of Chan for our language. Is it alright to use this name? Or does something need to change? I appreciate any and all feedback! Thank you ❤️
