Meaning & History

This name is used as 夜子 with 夜 (ya, yo, yoru) meaning "evening, night" and 子 (shi, su, tsu, ko, -ko, -ne) meaning "child, sign of the rat (1st sign of the Chinese zodiac)." Alternatively, it can be used as ヨル子 with ヨル, the phonetic characters representing Yoru, and 子.

One fictional bearer of this name is Yoruko Shinomiya (四宮 夜子) in the computer game Coμ - Kuroi Ryū to Yasashii Ōkoku (コミュ - 黒い竜と優しい王国 -).

This name is extremely rare. According to data gathered from phonebooks, only 4 people (presumably women) have 夜子 as their name and only 1 has ヨル子 as their name.
