[edit] More emphasis on personal name?

Several offsite mentions place emphasis on explaining the 'meaning' of his personal name. In the article, however, his name is only embedded in the full public (?) name. Could a nice way be found to explain the name, 悠仁 Hisahito , in isolation? Shenme 11:49, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I think a separate article concerning names could be created in that case, see Masako for example. Gryffindor 16:40, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] About Akishino

His name is only "Hisahito(悠仁)" and his title is "Prince Hisahito(悠仁親王)". Japanese Imperial Family has no Familyname, "Akishino" is just Title.
For example, Hisahito's mother Princess Kiko is Prince Akishino's wife of course, but her name is only "Kiko". "Akishino" is only "Prince Fumihito", Son of Akishino(Hisahito) isn't Akishino. The title of this page must be "Prince Hisahito" only. 10:39 23 September 2006(UTC)

It sounds like you know your stuff. Does the Japanese article have it just called "Prince Hisahito"? If so, then I think we should change it. Jamandell (d69) 13:17, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes, the Japanese page is just at Prince Hisahito. However, all of the other Imperial Family members in the English-language Wikipedia are at similar pages, such as his sisters Princess Kako of Akishino and Princess Mako of Akishino. That is also how the Imperial Household Ministry's English-language website translates their titles. Nik42 07:34, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
