Re: Nicole
If there are any you specifically like, let me know and I'll give you kanji and meaning options. The nice thing about combining Nicole w/ Jpns. names is that the lack of "l" in Jpns. means you've no danger of matching endings.Erisa 恵里佐 ... or could just be Elisa w/ kanji since they don't distinguish between r and l in Jpns. Elisa Nicole would be quite pretty.Marika 茉莉香 (nice that westerners can say it w/out butchering it because there's a name w/ same sounds in the west)
Erika 恵里歌 (eh-ree-ka) dittoErina 恵里名 (eh-ree-na) This is pretty, but not sure I'd like it w/ Nicole... could be put on the side and combined w/ other names.Ayaka 礼歌
