Shiro is the name of the main character in the Anime K. He has no memory of the event he is said to have been a part of. Quite the interesting character. I can't help but love the name because of him.
The name of the unbelievably evil monster of a man, Shiro Ishii. He was the commander of the infamous Unit 731, a covert biological and chemical warfare research and development unit of the Imperial Japanese Army that undertook lethal human experimentation often without anesthesia - not really something you should look up without having a strong stomach. Even though it's a rather obscure namesake and a relatively average name, the sheer evil of the actions of Unit 731 makes this a name I truly loathe and would never want to see on a child.
Shiro is the name of a character in the dog mangas Ginga Nagereboshi Gin and Ginga Densetsu Riki. He's the father of legendary dog Riki. Needless to say, he's white. I begun to like this name because of him.
Shiro also means 'white'. In the manga 'Bleach' there is a character named Toushiro which can be literally translated as frozen white or more specifically-winter, the name may refer to the abilities of the character's zanpaktou (sword/katana). It can also be translated as white child which would refer to the character's young age and white hair.
