| It was easy with my oldest (a girl) but I'm struggling with boy names I like in both languages. Any thoughts? |

I vaguely recall the guy behind this site developed it for Japanese/English names?
https://mixedname.com/english_japanese_masculine_names Anyway fwiw it suggests Nikko, Ken, Jo, and Leo. |

Kenji/Ken (does mean 2nd son in Japanese, so if you want to be accurate and it's your first son, then may not want to use) Raiden (https://nameberry.com/babyname/Raiden/boy) |

Rio is trendy in the US, so that's an option. Other options: Leon, Ray/Rei, Hugh, Hugo, Ian.
Noah/Noa is another, though that has a feminine feel, which may or may not be an issue for you. There are also a lot of kanji options for Kenji, but it's such a cliche for a Japanese American boy. A lot of these are, though, so yeah, it's tough search. Good luck, OP. |
