A long-time writer friend of mine’s first name is Raisa which I’ve always found beautiful, and she’s even allowed me to use it as a character name in one of my stories if I wanted to :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I did come up with a character called Risha which is close to Raisa and told my friend about it and she liked Risha, too. So, although I haven’t come up with a Raisa character, I did get approval for the close one :wink:

Anyway, that was a bit of a story time :grin:

The only Raisa that I know is from a fiction novel.
Her name is Raisa ana Marianna and she’s the Princess Heir to the Queendom of Fellsmarch.

She was a Princess Heir, now she’s the Queen last I remember.

It sounds like a princess name, doesn’t it? Princess Raisa. I can imagine a girl wearing a crown.

My friend’s from Bangladesh, and I think I remember her saying the name meant beauty or royal or queen or something like that.

Your name is also pretty :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: Qualeshia.

I don’t know many “Q” names.

Btw, how do you pronounce your name? I might have asked before, but I want to know again.

Aww, thank you! :blush:

In my name, the letter i is silent. So, it’s pronounced kwah-Lee-sha.

The name Raisa is pretty though.

There is a nordic surname named Vinter that I think is really cool sounding.

I’m currently amused with the title Thane. You see it in Skyrim, right? Thanes were the lords of Scottish clans. My ancestry comes from that as much as French.

My Turn:

I seem to like names that start with the letter K, S, R, A, and N a lot.

Though two of my favorite names don’t start with those letters. Like Demetrius is a beautiful sounding name and Evangeline is just awesome sounding to me.

But for names from other countries, I have a few that I love from Japan, not gonna lie.

Akira.
Kanna.
Kenji or Kenshiro.
Satsuki or Sakura.
Shinji or Shinichi.
Takashi.

I actually like this name. It’s also May. The month. I also like Kaede (kah-ay-day which is maple)

I feel like this is a common manga/anime name :grin: What do you like about it? The sound?

Here are some unique Japanese names I want your thoughts on:
Taiyo (it’s “the sun”)
Hikaru (unique because unisex, “shining”)
Kobuna (surname, “little crucian carp”)
Bungo (read like boon-goh and this was a first name for a boy. I don’t know what the meaning is, but the “bun” uses the kanji for “sentence”. Really unique. I have never seen any other name like this.)

Btw, none of these people were my friends and the first one was a random little boy at a preschool I heard had this name. Just letting you know, so you won’t feel bad to say you don’t like the names. I, personally, am not fond of Bungo XD

I think so. :sweat_smile:

I only know it from Bungo Stray Dogs. I watched an old episode of Family Fued (Pre-Steve Harvey Era) where there was a Black family where one of the daughters was named Kimiko, of all things.

Interesting. She didn’t have an Asian heritage?

Btw, Bungo isn’t like “bun” like a bread bun in the Japanese version. A different pronunciation could actually be a name somewhere else.
