Origin and meaning of Aiko
Aiko is a delicate Japanese girls' name formed from 愛 (ai, 'love') and 子 (ko, 'child, daughter') — literally 'beloved child'. The 子 ending has for generations been the most classic marker of Japanese girls' names. Aiko is known beyond Japan thanks to Princess Aiko, the Emperor's daughter, yet it keeps an unmistakably Japanese flavour.
