Looking for deep sounding Japanese names (boys and girls)

Hi there! We are planning for baby no.3 but we have 0 (ZERO) baby names that we both like. 0 girl, 0 boy.

Girl names my husband likes that I vetoed:

- Yuuna (Sounds like "don't say it" in Japanese.)

- Yuina (I don't like the high "i" sound.)

Girl names I like that my husband vetoed:

- Sayuri (Too close to cousin's name.)

- Hiyori (Simply doesn't like.)

The only boy name we ever considered but ultimately ended up not liking is: Hisato

Boy names my husnand vetoed due to belonging to friends and family: Ryuji, Kenji

- Names can NOT start T, K or S. (We love the name Kagura for a girl, but K is already taken in the family.)

- We are looking for deep vowel names. A, U, O mainly. Especially on the ending. But also open to some high vowels, as long as the name still sounds "firm".

- No kira-kira names and no Showa names either please. (Like Pikachu or girl names ending with -ko.) Anime names are welcomed as long as they're actual japanese names. ^^

- I'm looking for a bit western-ish sounding names (so not like Ryunosuke)

Not sure if I could convey clearly the type of name we're looking for. Honestly I don't even know what we're looking for at this point. 😂

I hope you can leave your favourite names here and we might get some ideas browsing through it. The more the merrier. Thank you in advance for taking time out of your day to contribute to our naming journey. ☺️

Colourblindness in toddlers

Hello there,

​

I've been wondering if anyone have experience with colourblind toddlers? I'm strongly suspecting my soon-to-be 3yo to have some colour-related issues, so I wonder what might be the tell-tale signs. (He is non-verbal, so I cannot test him with those circle drawings.)
