Ayame: Eye-yah-may (I doubt that's how you spell it out >.>  It means "iris," the name of a type of flower, but also comes from a spectrum of bluish-violet colors, apparently. |

Yumi- You-mi (Yu meaning "Reason" or "Bow" and Mi meaning "Beautiful")
Aneko- I wasn't able to get a good idea of how to pronounce her name. It's either these two ways:
Uh-nee-ko
A-nay-ko
It's probably the second one. The meaning of this name was not found.
NPC's:
Mai (Mother of Yumi)- People usually get this confused. I pronounce as "My". In Japanese Mai means "Dance".
Akio (Husband of Aneko)- I'm not sure about his name so much. It's either these ways:
A-kee-o
I-kee-o
Akio means "Bright Boy" in Japanese.
Ukanto (Father of Yumi)- This one I am really not sure of the most. I've always been pronouncing it like this:
Oo-kan-toe
The meaning of this name was not found.
If I'm wrong with pronouncing any of these names correct me, please.

My character's name was made by me so I guess the way to pronouce it isn't wrong ^^
Kyiko
[Ki-E-koh]
Kyiko doesn't have a meaning but I would like it to mean "Gift" or "Winter". XP Don't really know.
