thanks claudiaS,
i went to a local book store and try to look the name shun in baby names. i couldn't find it. since i was kind of a hurry. but i did find shion which says it's a girls name. but on wikepdia it says it's a unisex name. but there is both male and female fictional characters with that name. but i don't know any female fictional characters with the name shun. that's why i was wounding. i hated to ask this again but is shun a popular name in japan? because i think the girl i met at hibachi master just said her name was a popular japanese name. nothing about it being a popular girls name.

Yes, Shun is a comparatively popular boy's name. I saw it at #33 on one list for 2007 and #46 on another.

The two websites I've found are in Japanese only. Links are:
http://www.meijiyasuda.co.jp/profile/etc/ranking/
http://women.benesse.ne.jp/event/hakase/rank2007/index.html
I looked over the newly posted 2008 top 100 list for names which appear for both boys and girls and found these:
Sora (#5 for boys, #55 for girls)
Hinata (#20 boys, #22 girls)
Yuu (#21 boys, #56 girls)
Aoi (#42 boys, #3 girls)
Shion (#56 boys, #97 girls)
Mizuki (#70 boys, #56 girls)

No, I don't know any English sites that have this kind of current information about popular Japanese names. Sorry!

well can you read japanese on those sites? or do you use a translation? and if so what's a good translation web site? or if you can read japanese could you maybe e-mail me all the popular japanese names on that page on those two web sites?

I can read Japanese, so I haven't used an online translator. If you send me your e-mail I'd be happy to type you out a list of the most popular names from 2008 (the list goes to 100).

ok thanks clauidaS
ok thanks clauidaS
i got a free imtranslator but one site i couldn't copy and paste on it and the other i would do it and would gave me the meaning of the name. anyway my e-mail address is gunblade007@yahoo.com just gave me popular japanese names that start with the letter ''S'' instead of gaving all 100 names.
thanks again.
