Thanks Paul, I like those, especially Rena!
Our daughter is Nico, her cousin is Kai and our friend has twin 18-year old brothers in Spain: Taro and Jiro.
Enjoy yourself,

Good question Sweetsee!
We are thinking about the same topic as we are having our first kid (boy) this May. Will be brought up in Oz or Japan.
We have thought of:-
Akira (also a Scottish boy's name, spelt the same way; and he'll have a Scottish Dad!)
Tomo Hiro (with Hiro as a 'middle' name in Oz)
Tom
Ken Taro (with Taro as a 'middle' name)
Any other suggestions for a boy bub? would be appreciated
Also for girls, Miki, Mimi, Shina (Sheena, 'nother good Scots' name!) |

No, I like the surprise of not knowing the gender. I've been wrong in my guessing both times. |

No I have both, a boy AND a girl.
In delivery? You bet and cut the umbilical cord both times too. I think that was a first for our Japanese doctor, after 30 years of delivering. |
