A modern 'Japanese name' (日本人名) consists of a family name, or surname, followed by a given name. In almost all cases both are written using Kanji. Some names are pronounced according to the usual readings of the characters (with kunyomi generally being used for the surname and either onyomi or kunyomi for the given name). Others use readings which are never found except in names, and still others use kanji which are never found except in names. Additionally, a name written in kanji may have more than one common pronunciation, only one of which is correct for a given individual. This makes the collation and romanization of Japanese names a very difficult problem.Quite a few Japanese names, particularly family names, include a dated or unusual Chinese character. These are often outside of the Unicode character set, widely used in the western computer community, which causes severe difficulties in representing them on the computer. [example?] Those who have such a name usually compromise by substituting other characters. An example of such a name is Saito. Most Japanese have adopted a custom of maintaining names with Furigana or ruby characters on the address book, for example. Japanese nationals are required to give a romanized name for their passport. This complication is also found in Japanese place names. Expressing them in Hiragana instead of Kanji is acceptable among lower grade students but usually seen as a disgrace otherwise. Whether to accept students using Hiragana for names in formal situations such as exams is sometimes controversial. This can be seen as similar to the problem of misspelling in languages with alphabets.
When written in Japanese characters, the family name always precedes the given name. As this differs from the ordering used in many other parts of the world, some, particularly academics, adopt the convention of writing the family name in upper case when the name is romanized: for example, Takuya MURATA or MURATA Takuya. Artists whos works are distributed in English outside of Japan often opt for a western ordering on the English editions of their works (e.g., Ryuichi Sakamoto, Shunji Iwai, Haruki Murakami).
Within families, younger family members generally refer to older family members by title rather than name, e.g. kaasan "mom" or niichan "big brother". Older family members refer to younger family members by given name. Outside of the family people are generally referred to by family name (Murata-san), by position (e.g. sensei, "teacher"), or by a combination of the two (Murata-sensei). Given names are used when referring to adult friends or to children. Names are almost never spoken or written without some sort of honorific, either a title like sensei or a general honorific like san, kun, or chan. Honorifics are omitted only in intimate relationships.
During the period when typical parents had several children, it was a common practice to name sons by numbers suffixed with ro (郎, "son"). The first son would be known as "Ichi (one) ro", the second as "Ji (two) ro" and so on. Girls were often named with ko (子, "child") at the end of the given name (this should not be confused with the male suffix hiko 彦). Both practices are now outdated.
Some Japanese, particularly celebrities, have a kind of nickname combining their real names. For example, Kimura Takuya, a famous Japanese actor and singer, becomes Kimutaku and Ito Jyunichi, a prominent Japanese hacker, can be Itojyun. Many Japanese celebrities have a name combining Kanji and Katakana. One such is Beat Takeshi.
Many ethnic minorities living in Japan adopt Japanese names to ease communication and, more importantly, to avoid discrimination. But a few of them still keep their native name. Among them are Chang Woo Han, a founder and chairman of Maruhan Corp., a large chain of pachinko parlors in Japan. The Japanese government requires immigrants to Japan to adopt a Japanese name without exception.
Common surnames in Japan include Sato (佐藤), Kato (加藤), Suzuki (鈴木) and Takahashi (高橋). Surnames often vary from place to place. Common surnames in Okinawa include Tamagusuku (玉城).
Many Japanese family names derive from features of the rural landscape; for example, Ishikawa (石川) means "stony brook", Yamamoto (山本) means "the base of the mountain", and Inoue (井上) means "above the well".
The Japanese Emperor has no surname for historical reasons, only a given name such as Hirohito (裕仁). In ancient times, people in Japan were considered the property of the Emperor and their surname reflected the role in the government they served. Many surnames originated from Chinese and Korean names. Examples are Kaneshiro (金城) (Chinese) and Chang (Korean).

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
A name is a label to things, people, places, brand names and even ideas or concepts, originally in order to distinguish one another. Names may identify a class or category of things, or a single thing, either uniquely, or within a given context. It is also called a proper noun.A toponym is a place name; an ethnonym is name of an ethnic group.
In addition to its original purpose of distinguishing, names have also came to have additional or pure honorary and memorial values. For example, the posthumous names' primary function is commemorative.
Naming is the process of assigning a particular word or phrase to a pattern that has been noticed. This can be quite deliberate or a natural process that occurs in the flow of life as some phenomenon comes to the attention of the users of a language. Many new words or phrases come into existence during translation as attempts are made to express concepts from one language in another.
Either as a part of the naming process or later as usage is observed and studied by lexicographers the word may be defined by a description of the pattern it refers to.
There are millions of possible objects that can be described in science, too many to create common names for every one. As a response, a number of systems of systematic names have been created. An example of a systematic naming scheme is Linnaean taxonomy, which uses Latin names for plants and animals.
Names of persons
It is universal for a person to have a name; the rare exceptions occur in the cases of mentally disturbed parents, or wild children growing up in isolation. A personal name is usually given at birth or a young age, and usually kept throughout life; there may also be additional names indicating family relationships, location, etc. The details of naming are strongly governed by culture; some are more flexible about naming than others, but for all cultures where historical records are available, the rules are known to change over time.
The following cultures' naming systems have been documented in this encyclopedia:
Common components of true names given at birth include:
- Arabic name
- Chinese name
- Japanese name
- Korean name
- Roman naming convention
Some people (called anonyms) choose to be anonymous, that is, to hide their true names, for fear of governmental prosecution or societal ridicule of their works or actions. Another method to disguise one's identity is to employ pseudonyms.
- Given name: universal. In most of Western culture, the given name precedes the family name; other cultures place it after the family name, or use no family name.
- Patronymic: the given name of a relative, usually the father or mother, or a name derived from this. Many family names are derived from patronymics.
- Family name-compulsory in the West, at least for past 300 years or so. Before that people were called (Given name) of (place of birth).
- Middle name: least common
The Inuits believe that the souls of the namesakes are one, so they traditionally refer to the junior namesakes, not just by the names (atiq), but also by kinship title, which applies across gender and generation without implications of disrespect or seniority.
Non-human Creature Names
Apart from the Linnaean taxonomy, some individual non-human animals and plants are given names, usually of endearment.
In some cultures, pets or sporting animals are sometimes given names similar to human names. Other cultures, such as the Chinese, give the animals non-human names, because it would be offensive and disrespective to the person by the same name; even the cultures that give human names to animals sometimes do so to an ugly animal in order to insult the bearer of the name. For examples of non-humannames,
In bonsai, some plants are given adjectival names, such as "The Cloud of Joyful Memories".
- An emperor during the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei's horse was called "Dilu" (的盧), meaning "Truely Dark", which may be metaphorically named for the ill fate it supposedly brought it previous owners.
- And Liu Bei's general, Guan Yu's horse was "Chi Tu" (赤兔), meaning "Red Hare", reflecting on the amazing speed of the horse.

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | WRATH, n. Anger of a superior quality and degree, appropriate to exalted characters and momentous occasions; as, "the wrath of God," "the day of wrath," etc. Amongst the ancients the wrath of kings was deemed sacred, for it could usually command the agency of some god for its fit manifestation, as could also that of a priest. The Greeks before Troy were so harried by Apollo that they jumped out of the frying-pan of the wrath of Cryses into the fire of the wrath of Achilles, though Agamemnon, the sole offender, was neither fried nor roasted. A similar noted immunity was that of David when he incurred the wrath of Yahveh by numbering his people, seventy thousand of whom paid the penalty with their lives. God is now Love, and a director of the census performs his work without apprehension of disaster. X X in our alphabet being a needless letter has an added invincibility to the attacks of the spelling reformers, and like them, will doubtless last as long as the language. X is the sacred symbol of ten dollars, and in such words as Xmas, Xn, etc., stands for Christ, not, as is popular supposed, because it represents a cross, but because the corresponding letter in the Greek alphabet is the initial of his name -- Xristos. If it represented a cross it would stand for St. Andrew, who "testified" upon one of that shape. In the algebra of psychology x stands for Woman's mind. Words beginning with X are Grecian and will not be defined in this standard English dictionary. Y |
