Anyone speak Japanese, or know of any online resources?

[UltimaGabe]

With the arrival of Complete Arcane, I'm planning on playing a Wu Jen (the Oriental Adventures Wizard) in our next campaign. I decided to play a female character for a change, and I'm going to give my character a katana as well- just for a bit of flavor. However, I'm a bit lost on names & such.

Does anyone here speak Japanese, or know of a good online resource to translate things into japanese? I want to pick a name for my character (the female Wu Jen), her brother (a male Shugenja), and her katana. It would be best if someone could just help me translate specific words into Japanese, and then just mesh them together into a name or two.

why would you want japanese, anyway? wu jens are chinese =)

but for your question http://japanese.about.com/library/weekly/aa042901a.htm is a link to a page about japanese baby names, which become adult names after leveling a bit.

Here's the link for a little free online English-Japanese/Japanese-English dictionary that I tend to use a lot. Enjoy!

I've always found this a very useful translator:

Yes, but we Americans are stupid and don't know the difference.

Anyway, thanks all for the help!
