Emil
Abraham
Susanna
Ignacio (I prefer Ignatius)
Neha
Sayo
Mio
Dana
Emmanuel (I wish those softcore films hadn't ruined Emmanuelle. It's such a cool name.)
Rayyan on a girl is kind of cool.
Klaudia (prefer Claudia)

Fun fact on the Filipino family... "Ian" is pronounced eye-ann there, not ee-an. To the rest -
I really love Marzena.
Some others that caught my eye Marco, Saleh, Mio, Maya, Kama, Neha, Ignacio, Susana, Emil, Marcelucia, Belissa (so pretty!). Maurizio is my favorite uncle's name, and Klaudia is quite the spunky spelling!

1. In regards to Sayo, is the kanji written in the book or not? Because Sayo has many different meanings depending on which kanji is being used. I'm not saying that it may not mean 'born at night,' it could well be a possibility since one of the nanori (special or name) readings for 生 meaning "birth, genuine, life" is 'sa' and the kunyomi (Japanese readings) for 夜 meaning "evening, night" are 'yo' and 'yoru.'2.

No, you don't see the kanji for the names.
When I looked the name Takeo up here on BtN, a submitter said that Takeo was a variant of Takeshi, so I hoped that was correct. I speak very, very little Japanese, so...
