Ahhh I don't think I did badly with Kotori Birdsong. I'm relieved. Thanks for this thread!
Edit: When I was looking up the meaning of Yugiri a long time ago, I did find out that it was the name of a ship but that it was also apparently the name of a character in the Tale of Genji (The peak of Genji’s glory, however, also announces his slow but inexorable decline, and chapters such as “Nowaki†and “Wakana†reveal his vulnerability in front of a new generation of young heroes, Yūgiri and Kashiwagi. The disintegration of Genji’s world becomes final with the death of his beloved Murasaki, in chapter forty, “Minori,†and not long after, the Prince’s shining light is finally extinguished.* - Wikipedia
I guess it's based on the definition of the name but Oboro seems to always be used in manga/anime/games/shows relating to a ninja or bandit character. I thought that was pretty interesting as well.
http://www.babynames.ch/Info/Language/laJapanese Here's a list of names, some of them two-parted if anyone else was looking. It's a pretty short list but I liked some of them and it gives both the Kanji and the Hiragana spellings as well as the translations (which you might want to double-check if you pick one).
