What's the origin of your name? And why do people assume their names must mean something in Japanese? Only some Japanese names have an actual meaning, but Tori Lampert doesn't seem Japanese to me. At all.


everything is relative and contradictory ~

She is asking what her name means in Japanese.

So if you name means Nature in Latin, it means Nature in English and means Nature in Japanese.

yep

the only thing non-japanese names can be is katakana, which has no "meaning" and is entirely phonetic.

Sorry but "Tori" does not means "bird"??? o.o well, is not japanese because it is not wirten in kanjis but it's pronounce the same but I think this is just casuality...
