Daisuke
Kaoru
Arima
Jun

Hikaru
Noriko

It's in Chinese or a few idioms in archaic Japanese.
Rin(凛) means dignified in the present Japanese. or uses other kanji for rin.

Sasuke, for some reason I find it sweet and that's why I named my dog like this., altough no Japanese would name their son like that cause, as I was told, it used to be a popular "samurai" name but it's forgotten nowadays. ^^

For girls, Suki, Akane and Sayuri.



I thought Ichigo was a boy's name; what about Kurosaki Ichigo from Bleach...?

And by the way, Itachi means weasel, it IS NOT a boy's name. There is no one in Japan named Itachi, as you'll understand. lol


Pd- I'd have never imagined Sora would be a girl's name and Riku a boy's.


everything is relative and contradictory ~
