Ichigo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ichigo (苺) is the Japanese word for strawberry. Authors have used it or other "Ichigos" (such as 一護) as the given name of a fictional character and an actress has taken it as her stage name.

The following fictional characters have this name:

  • Ichigo Kurosaki, the main character in Bleach, a manga by Tite Kubo. His name actually has a different meaning (and spelled differently from strawberry), but the pun is intentional.
  • Ichigo Momomiya (Zoey Hanson), the main character in Tokyo Mew Mew (Mew Mew Power) Means strawberry.
  • Ichigo Morino, a character in Please Teacher! and Please Twins!
  • Ichigo Shirayuri, a character in Kamikaze Girls (Shimotsuma Monogatari)
  • Hina Ichigo, a character in Rozen Maiden
  • Ichigotchi, a Tamagotchi character seen in Versions 1, 2, and 4 of the new Tamagotchi Connections. Ichigotchi had the shape of a stawberry.
