Japanese BSD Character Names Translated!!!

I’ve been learning Japanese for over a year and a half now, so I thought it would be fun to look into the meanings behind some of BSD’s cast. (Which also doubles as the original authors/poets names.)

Starting with Atsushi, his name is made of three characters: 中 島 敦

The first two, composing his family name, “Nakajima,” means island in the center of a pond/river. So essentially, “island pond”.

The kanji in his first name: 敦 can refer to either industry or the quality of being kind/gentle.

So all together, his name would be “Kind island pond.”

Like most last names, his probably refers to the location where his family is from. Meanwhile the first is just a typical Japanese name with a sweet meaning behind it.

My actual full name would be "Motakirukika Zumofu Arichikurukutoari*"! Cool!

My user would be "rinkumirikatokimikatarinkatetokuari9000*"

Wow.
