About My Name
I wrote this section for non-Japanese people. My name is "NISHIO Hirokazu" and "NISHIO" is the family name.
All Japanese people say their family name first when they are speaking Japanese language,
but unfortunately many people are misunderstanding that we must say given name first when we speak English.
My family name "NISHIO" is made of two characters "NISHI"(west) and "O"(tail).
"O" has same origin with "WO"(fish) so my ancestor might be a fisher.
"NISHIO" is pronounces like "knee see awe" but shorter.
My given name "Hirokazu" is made of two characters "HIRO" and "KAZU".
"HIRO" is pronounced like a hero. It means "big" and "calmful". (Wiktionary).
"KAZU" is pronounced like a cousin without "n". It means "peace" and "harmony". (Wiktionary).
