    Lol. Terada ranze is pretty unique name. Sony should push her in ngzkjust for the sake of her name. I love to say shiroma miru, tashima meru. Nishino miki and nishino nanase are quite cute like the owners. Last but no least is wakatsuki yumi..as cool as the owner.

    I like Kinoshita Momoka... Many/hundred flowers under the tree... And it doesn't quite fit its owner ^^

    Also, I love Shibuya Nagisa, it's just a really fun name, and she managed to play with it well in her catchphrase.

    And, just about the way they sound, I like Yamauchi Suzuran, Tomonaga Mio, Mizuno Honoka and Aigasa Moe.

    I haven't given this much thought tbh, but ill throw out one : Kamieda Emika.

    Have u figured it out???

    Yep her name is a palindrome. And its even cooler because Emika doesn't have the same number of syllabii as Kamieda. It's an odd-numbered palindrome.

    And Emika still sounds like a legit girl's first name, even if Kamieda... Well it reminds me of kamekameha... :^^;:

    Unsurprisingly she uses this for her bit for 'Team BII oshi, and its one of those really good ones - just try saying it, it flows really well.

    I'm necromancing this thread because I found 2 more super awesome names in Nogizaka, so I figured I'd share.

    Ito Marika's name means "A thousand pear blossom petals" that's some serious poetry right there
    and then we have Saito Asuka, whose name isn't that uncommon, but it is the first time I saw the kanji for "flying bird" used for that reading. That's so cool! Don't mind me much though, I just really love names that have to do with nature in general!

    Okay so my first girl that comes to mind is Abe Maria (Current Team K)
    Thats a cool name. Sounds so close to Ava Maria which heavenly. Her image doesn't quite match it sometimes...with all edge she's been putting out at main events but whatever it's cool.

    I like Muto Tomu and Kamieda Emika for their palindrome names, which are always cool. And I've always liked Jurina's name, it's so unique. For nicknames, I think Yuami (Yumoto Ami) is cute. I find Haruppi, Ripopo and Paruru quite fun to say XD
    As far as kanji, I really like Sayanee's 彩 (Sayaka), it has a pretty form.

    The Team 8 girls have some pretty cool names too. Moka, Serika and Sayuna are really nice ones.

    I love specially love paruru's name: 島崎 "遥香"
    the sound is special,
    haruka sounds great, sweet and also it's fun in combination with Shimazaki.
    Shimazaki don't have any meaning but (perhaps with no sense) somewhere recall at my ears the typical surname of an employee and... :D so the mix it's [hehe] and sweet.
    (and I feel also this suit with the girl in a lot of funny way)

    HARUKA
    GENDER: Feminine
    USAGE: Japanese
    OTHER SCRIPTS: 遥, 春花, 晴香 (Japanese)
    PRONOUNCED: hah-ṙoo-kah [key]

    From Japanese "far off, distant". It can also come from 春 (haru) "spring" or 晴 (haru) "clear up" combined with 花 (ka) "flower" or 香 (ka) "smell, perfume".

    source: http://www.behindthename.com/name/haruka

    so I always thought that means

    遥香 = "far off, distant + 香 (ka) "smell, perfume".

    I personally always liked SKE's Azuma Rion's name.
    Somehow it just sounds very cool!

    Though Azumarion does sound like the name of a Pokemon XD

    The Itano in Itano Tomomi because it reminded me of the Itano circus from Macross. The Kushiro in Kushiro Rina also sounds cool.

    Once again I'm baffled with Japanese names (and I was too in NMB to Manabukun eps 64)

    Murayama Yuiri, 村山彩希, for me who is only at below intermediate level in Japanese, I'd read it as Murayama Ayaki xD

    Mogi Shinobu sounds like a very friendly name and I like it, but a cool name for me is Oshima Ryoka, just for the pronunciation I think.
