Chenille (note the correct spelling) is the French word for caterpillar and is commonly used in the English language to describe a type of fabric. I would NOT recommend using it as your child's name unless either of these meanings is important to you. I like the sound of the word denoument but I wouldn't name my child (or my dog) that. A name is so much of a person's identity, and right or wrong, will influence the impression others have of the person who owns it.
If you decide to go with it, for the love of God, please spell it right. It's one thing to change up the spelling of a common name (Kris, Lauryn, etc.) but to do so with an uncommon name that's also a thing just looks uneducated, and I don't think that's the impression you want to give about your family or your child. Yes, I know this is America and you can do what you want, but think about the implications for your child.
If you're deadset on it, consider using it as a middle name so your child can use something else professionally.

Chenille and Satin sound too trashy. And Silk is practically asking DD to be a porn star. If you're going to go with fabric, how about Velvet?

I think it sounds like a piece of fabric.
I would assume that the child is African American as well.

Hahaha, good one.
Chenille may refer to either a type of colored yarn or fabric made from it. Chenille,
the French word for caterpillar, is typically used to describe a type of fabric.
