Seika also sounds a bit odd, and Umi isn't usually a name although it's not impossible.

Momo and Yumi are ordinary names here that lots of girls have.

Someone gave you a list with mostly more normal Japanese names, but one of them is Toru (or Tohru), which is very much a guy's name! Another one was "Toonami", which I haven't come across before, but it sounds more like a guy's name, or an anime name which you will never find a real person with.

I really wouldn't advise trying to make up your own name as you risk ending up with something which has a completely different and perhaps embarrassing meaning in Japanese.

Go with names that already exist.

tohru is from furuba i believe~
and toonami... =D
was the anime segment on cartoonnetwork ^_^
haha

flattered that i was taken seriously~
although i honestly shouldn't have been =P
most of those names came from anime characters
lolz
>.<''

maybe... junko or aiya? =D
names of two japanese woman i know personaly xD



In the shadows beneath the trees he waits.
In the darkness under the moon he plots
In the silence of the night he kills.
