Looking for a Japanese baby girl name

Any suggestions? TIA!

Yuki! It means snow!

I also love Yuka! I'm not sure, but it might have the same meaning.

Satsuko. I can't find the meaning but I went to school with a girl named this and she was very sweet.

forensicmama · February 2011

I go to class with a girl named Satomi. She's a doll. I still love Yuki more, though.

I watch a woman named Junko's son. It's pronounced "June-koh"

And, I worked with a Rimi. It's pronounced "Ree-mee"

I also like Kimiko.

My niece's name is Kairi (like Ky-ree). It's a traditional Japanese name but I think some people in the U.S. think it's just a youneek spelling of a made-up name, especially since BIL and SIL are not Japanese. It sounds cute though and fits my niece.

My Favorite is Sayuri - it means small lily (SAH yu ree)

My 2 year old DD's middle name is Mariko (beautiful one in kanji) and my 6 month old DD is Tomiko (can't remember the meaning-eek!). Both were family names. I had a hard time picking out Japanese names (DH is Japanese) because I would like it if pronounced in an American way, but wouldn't like it when heard it pronounced correctly.

I like Amaya and Sayuri.

IU_baby · February 2011

I just saw an episode of Deliver Me and they named their daughter Mai. I thought it was really pretty.

My roommate in college was Japanese and named Yuki. I love it and she was such a sweet girl. On the baby name websites it says it means "snow," but she told me it meant "lucky."

I also love the name Suki. :-)

Etsuko (et-soo-ko)- child of delight

Hama- beach, shore

Machi- ten thousand

Mieko (mee-eh-ko)- bright

Sachiko (sah-chick-oh)- child of bliss?

Hikari (pronounced hih-CAR-ee). It was my roommates name, and I love it! I think it is a beautiful name.

WifeofaMarine · February 2011

My uncle married a Japanese woman; her name is Yumi. In high school we had a Japanese exchange student and her name was Yuriko.

If you're interested in some current name trends, I can message you a list of the girl names from our local paper.

I love Sayuri - makes me think of memoirs of a geisha - loved that book!

What about Tori - It means bird in Japanese (i think)

simplePixie · February 2011

I worked with a sweet little Japanese girl once named Moeko, pronounced Moy-ko. Not sure what it means though... couldn't quite find it doing a quick Google search.

Ami

or

Myu (I could really be butchering the spelling on this one. But the name sounds like this!)

jesstellina · February 2011

My brother's girlfriend is from Tokyo, and her name is Sayaka. She says it means brilliant star. I also like her friend's name, Keiko. I don't know what it means, but I like the sound of it.
