Akiko
 

A friend of mine, female, received the beautiful name Akiko, but she does not know its meaning. She says that it has something to do with children and children games.

Could you gently help me to know the meaning, or at least a part of it? thank you very much!! :ywave:

That is a very pretty name. ^_^

it's not just the name that is beautiful :rolleyes:

There are many different ways to write Akiko.

here are a couple I know.

明子 Light Child

晶子 Clear Child

亜希子 Sub Rare Child... (i don't know its a lit. I looked it up. haha)

明子、　秋子、　アキコ、　晶子、　亜希子、　彰子、 　昭子、　晃子、　暁子、　あき子、　アキ子、　彩子 、　顕子、　安喜子, etc....

All of these names are read as 'Akiko' and there are more possibilities. None of the ones I just typed above have anything to do with children games in their meanings. We need to know how the name in question is written in Japanese to tell you what it means. 'Akiko' as written in the alphabet virtually tells us nothing about the name except for the mere sounds of it. So please go find out how the name is written and get back here.
