hey everyone,
it's me again. i was wondering if Joe could be a japanese name? i know ken can be a japanese name too. that means ''healthy,strong'' in japanese. i do notice there's alot of japanese names and words that go with Joe. like jo a 4 foot long wooden staff used in some japanese martial arts and the garment worn by shinto priests is called Joe and there's some anime and video games characters with the name Joe. like champion joe and crusher joe and viewtiful joe and katsuya jonouchi (aka joey wheeler) from yu-gi-oh! but i think they don't use the ''E'' on joe so they go by JO. which here in the usa is a female version of Joe. well talk to you later.
sincerely,
-Joe:)

Don't forget Ashita No Joe, aka Tomorrow's Joe, who, if I'm not mistaken, is sort of the Rocky of Japan.gunblade007 wrote:...there's some anime and video games characters with the name Joe.

For some reason, I have the Ryuichi Sakamoto/YMO song "Tokyo Joe" running through my head now:
