ArchivesRe: Male Name Teijo
in reply to a message by ClaudiaS
I thought so because the ending jo is feminin. But o seems to be different?
Well if you should hear something `bout a male japanese Teijo, it would be great if you could post it here :-)

Just thought I would add, that Goto Teijo wrote his name with the kanji "tei": "degree, extent" and "jo": "power" (in the mathematical sense, like powers of 10). So Teijo would not have to be written with the kanji for "woman," it's just that the vocabulary word meaning "virtuous woman" would come to mind when a Japanese person heard this name.
