Shouka Explanation: I am really getting confused... Are you looking for real Japanese names? Japanese names are usually made of two charactes which normallly have a meaning each. However, you have been asking for names made of three parts (Water under a winter moon, Fire of a summer sun, sunset fire of earth). I did not think that you were asking for real Japanese names. Would it not be possible to abbreviate these at all? Shouka (宵華) sunset flower might be pronounced Shouka which is, phonetically, a Japanese name. It does not contain the phrase "of earth." You can see a homepage of someone called Shouka here - http://super.win.or.jp/‾toshi/seiyuu/shibata-shouka/ |

Yuka Okano Explanation: Hi Caroline. I propose Yuka as the first name of the girl. Yuka means flower in the dusk when a character signifying dusk is used for "yu" part of the name, and a character signifying flower is used for "ka" part. For the last name, I would chose Okano, which means "hill and field". Aothough the last name is a common family name in Japan and may not be so fancy, I still recommend it because it gives a balance when put together with Yuka. I think that this balance can be felt by most Japanese people. Although you don't request Japanese symbols, I present it below for your information. 岡野夕花 |
