Heiji and Kazuha's Names

I just realized that, if you take the character for "Hei"(å¹³) in "Heijiã€€ï¼ˆå¹³æ¬¡ï¼‰," and the "Kazuï¼ˆå’Œï¼‰" from "Kazuhaï¼ˆå’Œè‘‰ï¼‰," You get the word "Heiwaï¼ˆå¹³å’Œï¼‰" which means Peace in Japanese! (Except they're not exactly that peaceful...)

(I figured this out when my friend and I were talking about all the detective names DC characters' names came from...)

I just had to tell you that...

Interesting, may gosho have thought it? (?) =o

I think Aoyama-sensei more or less thought out all of the characters names.

Shinichi Kudo for example would be "One Truth In This Painful World" 8)

...but the kanji in truth [çœŸå®Ÿ/shinjitsu] and the one in Shinichi[æ–°ä¸€] is different.
I've seen æ–° being pronounced as 'atarashii', meaning 'new'.
Please correct me if I'm wrong! xD

How does Hattori Heiji translate as?

Well, Heiji's name, to say it bluntly, is "Flat-Next"...
Kazuha is hard to explain...

And yes, it's true that the Shin part of "Shinichi" means "New" instead of the "Shinjitsu" Shin...

Then, Kogoro comes from Akechi Kogoro (One of Edogawa Rampo's characters),
Ran comes from Maurice LeBlanc (Japanese pronounciation, "Mourise Reburan")

It's too troublesome to list them all, so look it up on wikipedia yourself!

Nope, it's å¹³å’Œ.

I know because I can read and write in Japanese...

Both mean peace in Japanese. But å¹³å’Œ is what is commonly used.
