What's in a Name? (Part II)

In the comments on the last post, Mom asked a good question. What do the kanji in the various names we're considering actually mean?

Here's a quick rundown:

Leina / 玲奈the sound of a bell,  = a kind of tree

Junna / 純奈= pure,= as above

Erika / 絵里花= picture/painting, =village/hometown, =flower

Yuzuka / 柚香= a kind of citrus fruit, = fragrance

Rintarou  / 麟太郎= a Chinese unicorn, 太郎= a suffix for a boy's name

Also, I've finally hit the halfway mark, 20 weeks down, 20 weeks to go. I'll be going to the temple with Sho-chan and his mother this weekend to get my special pregnancy belt at the safe-delivery temple, Nakayama-dera. I'll post pics next week!
