peer agreement (net): +1| 康。。。康二 Yasu this, Yasu that? --> Ask the owner of the name. Explanation: Japanese names you can never be sure. While the other answers are excellent guesses, you cannot be sure unless you 1. Find the name in publication in English somewhere, and are certain this individual is the same as the one you are writing about or 2. Ask the owner of the name. If you are working for an agent, I would ask the agent to follow up on this. If you are working for a direct client, now is the time to ask for more information (if you've already researched the name but cannot be 100% sure you have the correct reading.) |
