Beauty behind names
Date: 09 Aug 2005 - Subscribe


Hello everyone! As you know my name is Mislav. It is an old Croatian male name. I was named after Croatian ruler from the 9th century. Personal names have different origin...religious, natural, they are reflection of person's character etc. I recently read an article about Japanese female names. They are really nice...Here are just few examples.
Au - meeting
Chinami - thousands waves
Egao - smiling face
Etsu - delight
Hoshi - star
Ine - rice
Jin - tenderness
Kagami - mirror
Kai - forgivness
Kame - tortoise, symbol of long life
Kawa - river
Kinu - silk
Koneko - kitten
Kuma - bear
Matsu - pine tree
Miu - beautiful feather
Nagisa - seashore

One more detail...There are very few names starting with b, d, g, j and z. For Japanese these consonants sound rough and uncivilized.
