Japanese Nicknames and Middle Names - 09-02-2009, 03:55 AM
I have a few of questions I am curious about.

1.) Do people in Japan have middle names?

2.) How are nicknames created?

3.) What does "kichi" mean added onto a name? Like if someone is named "Teru" and he is called "Terukichi"?

Thank you!
