And our winner is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Gaijin

Just to refresh your memory here is the name story for our winner. " “Gaijin” is a Japanese word which means foreigner. It is not so polite, rather abrupt. It is pronounced “guy-jean” phonetically. When I first moved to Japan many years ago, children would point at me and say “Gaijin, gaijin,” as if I didn’t know I was a foreigner! The more polite term is Gaikokujin-a person from a different country."

Gaijin, your package go in the mail soon! Congratulations!

Thank you all for sharing your name stories. I feel like I know you all just a little bit better.
