HelpRe: Japanese names
in reply to a message by Aileen
I like a lot of Japanese names too, it's a shame that when they're transcribed you miss the visual elements of the ideograms. I don't master the language, but the official transcription system that's generally used is the following: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepburn_romanization
Of the names you list I like/would possibly use:
Sakura
Masami
Sayuri
Hana
Haruko
Kasumi
Izumi
Mayuri
I also like Akira for a boy, and Murasaki, which I don't think is used much in modern Japan.
