My favorite name(s)?
For me, it depends greatly on the person or people behind the name.

Imagine if you'd met a person, whom you truly disliked, who bore a name you liked.
You probably wouldn't look at it the same way after meeting that person.

Of course ~ you could just like a name for it's spelling. I'm not denying that.
... But it's a very common habit to associate names with faces or personalities... And that may somewhat influence the feelings you have towards them.

Nope - at least not that we know of. Although thanks to him our nicknames are ALWAYS やべっち.

that's not bad, it could be worse, it could be キムタク even though that isn't really related to 矢部君.

My Japanese friends surnames are Sato (really common) and Yoshitaka.
o^o
I like them both. Since I like both those people. <3
I guess it really does depend on the people you meet/their names.

Not dissing my surname or anything but I have a really common Japanese surname (it sounds like a pun of something in English and so it was made fun of a lot).

My friend has a really cool surname, Torazawa. I'll add my list later.

my preferred one is matsuda for man and for a girl I think Aoki
are great anyway my best friend last name is Sato.

I also like my surname but it is secret ;)

I thought Takanori and Kai were first names?

I like Hayashi, Terachi, and Matsumoto.
