Is this really an encyclopedic person? Isn't her info suited to her parents' article?217.140.193.123 8 July 2005 22:34 (UTC)

Shouldn't it be Mako, Princess Akishino anyways, to follow the same pattern as other members of the Imperial Family? Nik42 20:40, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
No it's not. The Akishino is a princely house, therefore she is "of Akishino" in English as far as I know. Gryffindor 02:23, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
When Mako's father married he received the title Prince Akishino (Akishino no miya) and authorization from the Imperial Household Economy Council to form a new branch of the imperial family. Which AFAIK means that, almost like Prince William of Wales and Princess Beatrice of York, she is titled this way to say she is the daughter of Prince Akishino. And please, since I am no expert in Japanese customs, if I have this wrong, feel free to correct me. Prsgoddess187 11:14, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Where's the picture?

Why do so many members of the Royal families not have pictures?
