Re: looking for japanese ''T'' names
No, there aren't any Japanese names that start with Tr- or Tw-. Those combinations of sounds don't exist in the language. Are you absolutely sure it's not, say, a Vietnamese name you're looking for?

actually, there's no "tu" sound in Jpns... It's Tsu... Some people mistakenly write it as "tu" if they don't know proper phonetics, but it's tsu.

Taku? Tomo? Torai? Takeo?I guess those don't sound right... I think Tre is a boy's name, meaning "three" or something?

I don't know much about Vietnamese names but there is a female name Tuyet which might be what you are looking for.
