i've always liked Hitami :)

edit: usually though my favourite Japanese names begin with K or M - they seem to sound better in my opinion!

I like the name Aya... it can be even used by us Arabs (middle east).

Among boys names i like Yamada, Keiski....... I cant remember any more.

I love Japanese names. I always tell people whenever I have a child I will use a Japanese name. Although I don't know whether I actually will or not. They are just so much more interesting. Of course that could be because I simply don't hear them everyday. Regardless, they are still beautiful.

I guess there are some exceptions....you know how Tony is a bo's name, but if you spell it like Toni, then it's a girls.....lol.....maybe thats the reason....

Me too. Japanese names have a certain kind of sond to them that is like music. The way you say it in different tones is like music. Haha. I must be rambling. I agree Japanese names are beautiful the meaning behind the names are very meaningful if you get what I mean. I love all Japanese name except for some strange reason I do not like the name Sakura. Must be influenced from Naruto cause I do not really like Sakura. Haha but I do like the flower.

Hi! I'm new!

I love japanese names, but I think, they have to fit to persons. If I live in Germany, and I will have a german wife, then in my opinion the baby couldn't get a japanese name, it should have a nordic name. I don't like it that here in Germany the people use so many exotic names, because the baby later perhaps doesn't like to have such an exotic name, and has to live with the name or has to change it.

But beside this some japanese favourite names are: Aoi, Aiko, Kyoko, Miyuki, Sakura and many more. :p

momoko is good ^^

I love the name Sachiko for a girl. It's adorable. Or Momo.

I already picked out my kids name:

Girl:
Sakura

Boy:
Akira

so I need to find more names...if you come up with any just tell me...

Oh, I love Japanese names. If I listed all the ones I like, we'd be here all day.

I actually did think about what I might name my children if I ever married a Japanese man, because my brain is random like that. I think it was sparked by the fact my Mother can't pronounce any Japanese to save her life. I stopped and went "If I lived in Japan and married a Japanese man, we'd have to name our kids something both sides of the family could pronounce."

oo what about the name Jade?? is that Japanese? cuz its really pretty

I like Asami which mean "beautiful morning":)

I'm afraid not. That's an English name that comes from the precious stone that is often used in carvings.

The Japanese would pronounce that name "Jeido," I believe.

Thnk you! :D

I like a lot of different names, and I tend to find new ones all the time.

I've always wondered though, if I gave a Japanese citizen the chance to give me a Japanese name, what name they would pick and what it would mean. If would feel more authentic coming from an actual Japanese citizen.

My favorite names are Naru, Nana, Minami and Haruna

Boys: Kazuki, Shinji, Ky. That's all I got Lol.

hey, i've a question concerning a name.
the girl's name "sachie", how is it pronounced? is it "sachi-e" or "sachi", without pronouncing the "e" alone?
and what does the name mean?

fave japanese boy's name has to be Yuuta. And a girls name, it has to start with Haru- because it means spring.

i only have 2 favorite names

Michieru

and Aoi

that is all

answer ...

wow

Lol SEEM like wannabes? we all are wannabes, thats why we're here. We wanna be japanese, simply out of respect and enjoyment of the culture. Come live in america for 14 years, then tell me you don't like Japan more XD.

I dont WANT to be Japanese .__. I am happy being my own culture. I want to live in Japan and be in their culture. I don't think thats being a wannabe though, because I have Japanese penpals who want the same to live in America, Austrlia and other places.

haha. no im quite happy being me, because whatever you have is always there for a reason.

yeah. loads of people want be like other people, its human nature.

I am no wannabe o.Ô I'm fascinated by their culture, that's all. And I'd rather live in America than in Japan.

OMG! Shuuji is so adorable. *_*

wannabes?! that may be abit harst.. dont you agree?
For me - I am here for only one reason: To get help for Japanese word meaning (the exact meaning) but.... so far i just end it posting on random stuff...
And one more thing... nobody is obsess about being japanese... or whatever - maybe some <_<
and here "生在福中不知福" a very wise idiom... at least i think it's one.. sorry dont know the exact translation.. maybe someone can help.. it's chinese..
