I think they're cool, but I wouldn't use them on kids that weren't part-Japanese.
Not saying *you* shouldn't, or that there's anything wrong with it.
. I just find it a bit jarring when a person's name and their ethnic heritage are so out-of-sync. I'm tall, light-haired, blue-eyed and pale. I'm glad I'm not called Esperanza, know what I mean?

It is,well it was. Lately -mi (meaning beauty),as well as -ka and -na,have passed it while -ko (meaning child) is getting a bit more dated though it's still widely used. I suppose that in theory you could use Miko on a boy if you used some obscure kanjii for -ko but I would be EXTREMELY surprised to find a boy named Miko. Originally Posted by triplicate
