Congratulations Gok. Never a finer moment in life than when one becomes a father for the first time.
Beautiful name too. 'Blessing' or 'snow'. Is that correct?

Beautiful name too. 'Blessing' or 'snow'. Is that correct?

Thank you. It depends on the Kanji. When written as 雪 then "yuki" does indeed mean 'snow.' But the one for my daughter's name is 愉希 - "yu" means 'joy' and "ki" means 'rare' so I guess it could be translated as "rare joy." This "ki" is also used in the word "kibou" (希望) which means "hope," so I like to translate the name as "joyful hope."

But "rare joy" might be a more accurate translation, as she just totally randomly cries and stops for no apparent reason, so moments of quiet tranquility are quickly becoming a rarity!! She's only a day old and she's already mastered the art of emotional blackmail - wailing relentlessly until she gets a cuddle! Our Kung Fu is weak! (not hard when I'll take any excuse to hug her lots)
