Quote:
Shizuhara Himiko
鎮 (Chin, Shizu): tranquilize (to calm)
原 (Gen, Hara): Meadow
日 (Nitsu, Jitsu, Hi...lots more): Day, Sun, Japan
美 (Bi, Mi, utsuku): Beauty, Beautiful
子 (Shi, su, tsu, ko): Child
Himiko needs more explanation. Shizuhara Himiko was a character I came up with from a game (Nation-States), who happened to be Secretary of Space in the Anderson administration for the Democratic Republic of Deianira, and head of the space program. She didn't really show up in the story, but when I needed a convenient username for a different forum, her name came up. Besides, it's ironic. None of the meanings for her kanji (there are different combinations, too) suit me at all. :P
