Hey! What did you finally name the kid?
I was wondering why this was bumped!
Well, despite all the good (and some plain stupid :P) suggestions, we named our son…
KAISHU. Pronounced kye-shoe.
Kai means to lead, Shu means autumn. Its easy to say in Japanese and English, and can be shortened to Kai.
I’m touched that someone was interested! Arigatou!
Whoops…there was supposed to be a smilie sticking out its tongue after the “plain stupid” comment.
Damn, I didn’t notice the last posts and thought you were still taking suggestions, so I wrote a whole list of names (I think I’ll put it in anyway in case people are curious):
For boys:
Odin
Thor
Ukko
Veikko
Heikki
Hieronymus
For girls:
Vashti
Zenaida
Cytheraea
For either:
Emuukha
Yacatizma
But I think Kaishu is a wonderful name. I’m sick of hearing of parents’ naming their kids either really common English names or stupid pseudo-WASPy yuppie names, so you’ve provided a breath of fresh air.
