What is your Japanese Name?

Postby Phantomj » Thu Apr 20, 2006 11:41 pm

I just came across this website with a Japanese name generator.

My name is 石丸 Ishimaru (round stone) 陸 Riku (land).

Go here to find out your name http://rumandmonkey.com/widgets/toys/namegen/969/

Wow, I put in my real* Japanese name, and it spat out:

石丸 Ishimaru (round stone) 拓海 Takumi (open sea)


Hmmm... strange that it doesn't accept Japanese names...



* Yes, I have legally changed my name.

I get the feeling that there is going to be a rash of new characters with interesting japanese names.

I know I want a character named "monkey on a crossing bridge"

中島 Nakashima (center of the island) 拓海 Takumi (open sea)

This makes me wonder what system is used to determine the name. This doesn't mean anything similar to my actual name.

秋本 Akimoto (autumn book) 明 Akira (bright)

I got this one when I went back to try again just to see if it would be the same. I accidentally hit enter without inputting any type. Gerhard, that means that your family name is the same as nothing.

改 what? ;7

Oh alright, something closer to real, ルビキ サラ would be my name in katakana, transliteration based on meaning is a bit more difficult but I'm approximating the region for my last name as a coastal valley, so Kishitani Hime, 岸谷 姫

The generator says Saruwatari (monkey on a crossing bridge) Michiko (child of a thousand beauties) Right.

吉国 Yoshikuni (good fortune country) 拓海 Takumi (open sea)

Well, I live by the ocean, and I am a Hare in the Chinese Zodiac, and Aquarius in the other kind thingymigjob.

I am an air symbol that carries water around while I hop about....I must be a pregnant gasy horny rabbit...but at least I'm lucky.

My Japanese name is: Saruwatari (monkey on a crossing bridge) Masato (sacred person)
I like it. I also am a hare. Were you born in 1975, or 1987? (I presume not 1963...)

川添 Kawazoe (riverside) 雄大 Masahiro (big hero)

that's really weird since i claim riverside, ca as my hometown...

the last name's pretty cool too, especially since "masahiro" sounds a bit like "master hero" in english. maybe engrish. w/e.

edit: well, that's with me trying to put in my first, middle and last names. duh. here's just my first/last....

川添 Kawazoe (riverside) 海斗 Kaito (big dipper of the ocean)

all that water surrounding my name. kinda cool.
