実生雄
Tagged but not listed. Needs durably-archived (not raw web) cites. - -sche (discuss) 23:01, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete: rare and unconventional. — T AKASUGI Shinji (talk) 02:01, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
 * There are forty-one Google Books hits for this string of characters, so I'll let it sit here for its month to see if anyone cites it. - -sche (discuss) 05:01, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I've added three citations. For the third, there is no actual citation as 実生雄 is the given name of one of the authors. BenjaminBarrett12 (talk) 05:18, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
 * As far as given names are concerned, Google hits don’t matter. They can be very free, especially in Japanese, and the criterion must be higher than other words. For example, Google gives you a lot of hits for Picabo but we won’t list it as a female given name (I’m talking about the skier). It is enough if we have an entry for みきお. — T AKASUGI Shinji (talk) 05:28, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
 * The three citations are not merely Google hits. Two are from Google Books and one is from Jim Breen's dictionary project, which is authoritative. (I can add another book citation if Jim Breen's dictionary is not considered adequate.) I completely disagree that it is enough to have only the hiragana version as that is not the form that a person whose name is 実生雄 would normally use; the entry 実生雄 serves the reader seeking to learning about it. Picabo gets 14K hits on Google Books which seems adequate according to the CFI even if she is the only person with that name. BenjaminBarrett12 (talk) 05:45, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm inclined to pass this as cited. It is tagged as rare. - -sche (discuss) 05:05, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
