Comments for KEIKO:
This must be a unisex name, because Keiko the orca was male.-- Phoenix Flower 10/4/2005
No. It's definitely a feminine name.-- Anonymous User 12/4/2005
It can also mean "joy child" or "grace child" or "revelation child" or "the beginning/opening of a letter child" or numerous other things. In the generations before me, this was an EXTREMELY common name (I know lots of Keikos).
As for being a unisex name, I can't speak for other languages, but no Japanese in their right minds would name their boys Keiko unless maybe they wanted him to get beat up or something. It's a very feminine name in Japanese.-- abbasdaughter 12/25/2005

Um, actually, it's pronounced "Kay-ii-koh".
ke = "kay"
i = "i"
ko = "koh"-- asforoneday 4/17/2007
Keiko can also mean "firefly child". The kanji for "hotaru" has an alternate pronunciation of "kei".
Keiko is pronounced kay-ko. Kei is a single syllable/kanji, pronounced as "kay", while the syllabe Ke would be more accurately rendered as "keh".-- Anonymous User 5/19/2007
I think it is a cute name. I think there's a character on Ubi named Keiko.-- jasmineenimsaj 1/12/2008

On Star Trek: The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine, Miles O'Brien's wife is named Keiko. She is a botanist and later a teacher.-- MoonAgeDaydreamer 10/27/2008
A famous bearer is Korean actress Keiko Agena (3rd October 1973, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA).-- MaggieSimpson 3/2/2009
Pronounced kay-ko.
It is not unisex because "ko" is strictly for Japanese girl names.
For example:
Haru is unisex but if you add a "ko", Haruko, it makes it a feminine name.-- junpyon 4/9/2011
