Meaning & Story
A Japanese name (明子 or 芽衣子), with meanings varying by kanji — possibilities include 'bright child,' 'sprout' combined with 'clothing' and 'child,' or other combinations; also the name of the iconic Vocaloid character Meiko.
Meiko has a bright, musical quality that makes it feel instantly lively and expressive. In the Vocaloid world, MEIKO was one of the very first Crypton Future Media voice synthesizers released in 2004 — a pioneer before the art form even had a name. As a pet name, it suits animals with big personalities and a gift for making their feelings known, loudly if necessary. Pets named Meiko tend to have excellent timing and a knack for demanding attention at exactly the right moment.
