http://www.pickbabynames.com/_country/Japanese.html

Who says Japanese names don't have meanings? Gems from the collection include:

Kamlyn: Form of Kami Lord
Boy Name

Michio: Man with strength of three thousand
Boy Name

Kaori: Add a man's strength
Boy Name

Tanjiro: High-valued second son
Boy Name

Leiko: Arrogant
Girl Name

Poor old "Leiko Tanabe", ex-poster of sci.lang.japan.
