Title: Sakaki and Kagura's First Names

They're never mentioned throughout the manga or anime, but do you think the other girls ever learn them?

What do you think they might be?

For some reason I can see Sakaki having either a unisex name or a really girly name (with a -ko ending). As for Kagura, no idea. Maybe it's Kagura Kagura.

Johnson and Johnson.

A "-ko" ending, hmm? How about Sakaki Motoko? :sakaki: Sakaki, being a tall bishoujo sort of girl, makes me think of a gentler version of Aoyama Motoko from Love Hina. ^_^

As for Kagura :kagura:, how about Kagura Miyuki? I like that name, and several other anime girls are named Miyuki. ^_^

"Sakaki" and "Kagura" are their first names. We don't know their surnames.

This.

According to Wiki, Sakaki and Kagura are family names.

Wiki on Sakaki

Wiki on Kagura

Has Azuma-san himself spoken or written on the subject? :unsure:

According to Jim Breen's dictionary, they can be either surnames or female given names.

It just occurred to me that this actually may be the joke.

They're probably both called ____. So to avoid confusion everyone calls them by their last names.

I wasn't witty enough to think of one.

LimeTH - October 20, 2009 09:19 PM (GMT)
As you know, "Sakaki" and "Kagura" can be both first and last names. So....

Sakaki Sakaki and Kagura Kagura. Problem solved.

EDITL: Bah, beaten to it.
