さん(san) is used for both male and female names. くん is used for only male names. Both san and kun are suffix to call honorifically. ちゃん(chan) is used for both male and female almost chidren's names to call friendly.

We normally use "san" by default. If you want to refer to the children:
[Boys]
1 ~ 5 years old, "chan"
6 ~ before getting employed, "kun"
[Girls]
1 ~ 12 years old, "chan"
13 ~ , "san"
[Adult]
all "san"
The border between ages is approximate.
However, there are some exceptions. If they are younger family or younger relatives, or you feel them as if your family, you can use "kun" to male, and "chan" to female.
