ABUSING UNICODE: A REDICULOUSLY CONVOLUTED GUIDE
Unicode, I've discovered, is amazing. I'm a bit of a technophobe. For example, if I were to type in &# 3 4 2 5 3;, without the spaces, I would get 藍. Equally, 千代子 is achieved by writing &# 21 315; &# 20 195;&# 23 376; with no spaces whatsoever and ; after each code. But, yeah, the link should do it for you. Just...eh...don't mess around with it. If you cannot view the kanji (which you should be able to...), please right click, select encoding, and select 'Japanese'.

BUT ANYWAY...

I thought it'd be fun to have a unicode CAF. To make things even more complicated. Because other alphabets are prettiful. The alphabet of choice is Japanese. This is by no means realistic. I've learnt that Japanese people are quite conservative with names, from a learner of Japanese and some native speakers (but hey, my own people are hardly revolutionary in that department)... so I don't want any 'Hey, that's impossible', or 'You can't really use that kanji'. This is meant to be fun, a bit different... and really, go for pretty meanings, pretty kanji, pretty names, whatever floats your boat. It's weird. I wanted to try something weird. Just remember that Japanese names go Surname Name order, and do not have middle names.

Find extra Kanji that isn't on behindthename, if you want, using this simple search site: http://kanjidict.stc.cx/dict
And translate the kanji into unicode with this one: http://www.pinyin.info/tools/converter/chars2uninumbers.html

You can also include the meaning of the kanji in brackets after the name if you wish. For example. Yamamura Haru (山村陽) [spring]

---

... And just have fun! If popular and fun, and not too complicated, there might be a round two! Anyway, this will be judged. So at least you'll get praise and e-hugs if you survive this =P

Good luck!
