My name

As you already know, my name is Meiko(芽生子).
I was named by my father.
When I was an elementary school student, I asked him the meaning of the name.

He said...
1. He wanted to make his children's initials same. My older sister's name is Moyuko(萌由子).
Therefore, my initial was decided on M. H.
2. He wanted to use Chinese character included "Kusa-kannmuri."
Usually, Kusa-kannmuri meams nature. He wanted his children to live naturaly and calmly.

Finally, he hit upon my name.
He hoped that I lived freshly and powerful like a hard sprout through my life.

By the way, the meanings of my sister's names are connected.
3.Moyuko 萌由子 means "bursting into leaf."(compared with mine, emphasized green leaf)
2.Meiko 芽生子　means "sprouting bud."
1.Mariko 蒔李子　means "seeding." (only seeding but with hope to bear fruits)

All my sister's like own name and thank father for his sense of naming!
Anyway, I want to be a person like one my parents hoped long long ago...lol
