I was just curious what kiba's name means. I cant find it in any japanese name dictionaries, it seems like it isnt actually a name with meaning. Any ideas?

Kiba means "fang". I think the significance is obvious.

I thought Ki was energy, or was that Kai? http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/huh.gif

Ki is pronounced &quot;chi&quot; i believe.

The &quot;ki&quot; in Kiba is pronounced differently.

actually, &#39;chi&#39; is the chinese pronounciation. In japanese, &quot;ki&quot; is a real character which is always pronounced &quot;ki&quot;, while &quot;chi&quot; is where &quot;ti&quot; would go, if it existed. If it&#39;s spelled &quot;ki&quot;, then it is &quot;ki&quot;.
