Something that has either "Snow", "Star", "Sky" or a name that has a pretty meaning that starts with H.

In my opinion, Hoshiko has no problem if it's in Naruto fanfic.

What do you mean by what does it pronounce? I just picked it off some cartoon. They wrote "Haylin" but I changed it to "Haelin".

haylin is chinese name, isn't used in Japanese.

I've actually decided not to use Hoshiko since some people were against it. I will use it in the fic but not as the main character's name any longer.
So, I'd really appreciate it if anyone could think of a nice name for a girl that starts with either H or K. And a last name as well. Cause my fic can't be posted yet because of the name problem. :)

Hey I researched some names on the internet and found these. What do you guys think of using them as the given name?
Hanako
Haruko
Harumi
Hiroko
Hiromi
Kazumi
Kiyoko
Do you think any one of the above names are suitable for a girl? Please choose one, which isn't also straining to pronounce.
I still need a family(last) name however. And could you help me think of one that isn't common and that starts with either a H or a K?
Thanks to everyone who is replying. I really want to post my fanfiction soon.

I've never heard such a name, about first name, or family name.
it maybe better Seiko as a name than Hoshiko, they are same means.

By the way, name that means Dewdrop,
I have only one word, Shizuku.

Hoshiko is a very comen japanese name.:vsign:

I am also on capter two of my manga but I only have an outline as far as the drawing goes so far. If you would like to read the script let me know and I'll try to post it on fan fiction or something. I also have deviant art but I REALLLLLLY!!!!! need to update it. If you're intrested I'm under
gymnastar1326kairi but I wouldn't look untill at the earliest this weekend though, or you might see some nasty stuff (cuz I had to replace my hardrive and still havent hooked up my scanner and I lost the old scans when they replaced it). Any ways I've rambled on long enough now, but if any one has any requests as far as names go I am extremely indecicive and need the leed female, friend, and several other names for the magic girls and guys. Dont ask...yet;) !

~thanx!:rheart:

Hi, I actually chose the name Hayato Yukari. Does it have a strange meaning or is it too straining?

Also I need another help. I know that Sakura is the romanisation of cherry in the Japanese language. So could anyone tell me the romanisations of these phrases?
Lightning Star
Shooting Star of Light
I don't mean the kanji of these phrases. Just need the romanji, the sounds of these phrases in Japanese.
Like "Ichigo" means Strawberry", right? :D
Thanks a bunch guys.

LOL You just said you didn't know ANYTHING about Japanese names. I'm tired of people pretending to know about things Japanese when they know nearly nothing.

-you have never been to Japan,
-you have not lived in Japan for at least 2 years,
-you don't understand Japanese,
-you don't fully command the Japanese culture,
-you are not Japanese in some way, shape, or form,
then do not, under any circumstances, write a piece of fiction centered around Japanese people, unless you plan on giving it the title, "Another Crappy Piece of Fiction About a People I Don't Fully Understand but Enjoy Anyway Since They're So Nice."

If, however, you do not meet any of the above requirements, then write and publish that work ASAP.

And stop calling yourself a fanfiction author. That's the biggest oxymoron I've heard in a while.

Look up a list of Japanese baby names. That's what I did when I was writing a story and I had a Japanese character in it. It's actually really helpful. Or get a name book. There's a lot of good stuff like that for writers, or just for naming in general.
