人名用漢字[じんめいようかんじ] Anki Deck - ta12121 - 2011-02-15
Hey guys just to let you know, I'm working on a deck to include a lot of Japanese names for those having trouble mastering them. I was thinking even though I got passed the basic common names. I still feel like learning more. So in repose to this, I'll be making a deck(working on it now actually, I'm almost to 1000 names). Where am I getting the names from?
日本の男優一覧,日本の女優一覧 and 日本の声優一覧.
http://ja.wikipedia.org/
(Enter those into the search, it's basically a list of male names,females names and the last is actor names).
I'm pretty confident if someone studies common names+this+learn from a JP name dictionary along with this. Your on your way to mastering how to read names well(or at least have strong knowledge of them+different readings).
When will I have this done? Give me a month and I should have this all done, or maybe faster depending on how much I add per day.
(I'm checking all the readings based on what's on wiki, so I'm being careful)

That's a good idea. Thanks for doing this!

There is so much variety and randomness in male given names that I don't think there is really any point in studying them. Surnames and female names are doable though.

Surnames and female names are doable though.In terms of studying I agree, that's why I'm once I'm done adding all those names. I doubt I'll ever study anymore.Obviously as they appear after in the random I'll add them slowly to my srs. But definitely I agree with the surnames.

There seem to be a few patterns for male first names:
1. Using Onyomi readings, all the shouhei, yuudai, junpei, Kenta etc. Very easy to read.
2. Names based on verbs, Shigeru, Manabi, Hikaru etc. Not too bad.
3. Archaic (?) Japanese names, Toshinori, Masanori etc. Parent's seemingly just choose a name and an arbitrary pair of random characters they think are cool with no relation to how they are normally read.

Because without this software, man would I have failed in learning Japanese so fast/so well. Thanks to my success so far with jp, I will apply it to my school studies and be able to get some high marks.

A few months ago I actually though of doing something similar, but never got to do it.
Thank you so much ta!

CarolinaCG Wrote:A few months ago I actually though of doing something similar, but never got to do it.yea. I'm pretty confident if one where to combine this with the common names for males/females+500 common surnames+this deck I'm making+using a JP name dictionary. Names will be no problem(at least 95% of the time)
Thank you so much ta!

The building of the deck is going well. I'm merging a lot of other names(i.e. anki shared deck). Plus some resources from the web (coscom). I'm almost at 2000, so it's going along well. I remember someone on the forum linked something like 9000+ names. I looked on my computer it seems I converted it to text format so I can import it into anki/make it a deck. I decided that I'll make two decks.One containing everything I've collected and one with all of collected+9000+ names.

Wait wait, what 2 decks are those? One for names and the other...?

But the other deck will have that included plus 9000+ of more names. So it will be 10,000+. But the second deck is just to add more names into the mix. Although assuming there are duplicates it will probably be less.

I think this is a pretty decent idea. I agree with male names though -> kind of wtf
Perhaps you could organize them somehow, like...I'm not sure really, but by common-ness would probably be helpful. You've done that however-many common surnames, so perhaps those could be tagged?
Having a deck with 10,000+ names just kind of blindly thrown in there is...kind of crazy.
The 8,555 sentence deck from the grammar dictionary itself is pretty intimidating itself, and that's even organized in the order of the book (iirc).
edit: or organize them by source. Like tags for wikipedia:male_names and stuff like that.

But dividing it between male/female for that 9000+ resource would take too much work. But for everything else it wouldn't be a problem.
(Forgot where I got it from, but I saved it in a text file)
人名用漢字[じんめいようかんじ] Anki Deck - ta12121 - 2011-02-19
2561 names at the moment(deck). I'm feeling lazy. I added all the rest of the names on MS word. So basically I delete each name, every-time I add it, until I get to no more.
人名用漢字[じんめいようかんじ] Anki Deck - ta12121 - 2011-02-27
I will upload 9000 names(tomorrow, this is not via Wikipedia where I'm getting them from where I'm collecting for my own personal vocab deck, but these are from a site.Someone listed it in this forum and I converted it to a text file. Should have it on the anki shared decks by later today, need to head to bed.)
actually it's 7000+ (thanks to anki, no duplicates)
人名用漢字[じんめいようかんじ] Anki Deck - ta12121 - 2011-02-27
Ok it's uploaded and running. Search "Japanese names" under anki shared decks and it should be listed as the second last one. Here is the name
Japanese Names 人名用漢字
P.S. someone listed family names for collected all over japan(someone listed it on this forum and I made a text file a while back).

First, your effort is much appreciated! Names have always been my weak point - and I doubt this is any different for most learners.
However, when I tried it out, I got this:
■橋 (the first character appears as a solid black square), which is supposed to read Takahashi
Any ideas?
Edit: Also, ■田 (Yoshida)

So a lot of kanji are of the same but may have different readings. So treating them as different cards is key to learning them well (i.e. know my heart different readings for the same name).

So it isn't an error or a mistake.
人名用漢字[じんめいようかんじ] Anki Deck - ta12121 - 2011-02-27
wait I think I remember why (real reason). Those names are in hiragana for the blanked out parts.
I forgot where the link is I have a feeling it's right in front of me...
