The Origin of the Name "Yukipoko"

Once again, hello.
Yukipoko is my name.
I have been using this name on Twitter and note since I started at the end of summer.

When I was little, my parents would sometimes call me "Yukipoko."
My name contains "Yuki."
And for some reason, "poko" was added to the end.

My younger sister was called by the same "poko" suffix as well.

And when they referred to us sisters collectively, they called us "Pokora."
It's like a plural form, similar to saying "you guys" or "us girls."
Example: A conversation between my parents: "What should we do for Pokora's lunch?"
Yes, this will be on the test!

I don't know why we were called this, but I really like it, which is why I use it as my name.
Isn't "poko" just kind of cute? Haha.

By the way, have you ever heard of the "Law of Semi-voiced Sounds"?

Semi-voiced sounds, or plosives, refer to the "pa-pi-pu-pe-po" sounds in Japanese.

It is said that hit products and trendy words often contain these "pa-pi-pu-pe-po" sounds.

For example, Kenshi Yonezu's song "Paprika."
Since it's a song for children, it was named this because of how good it sounds. It also appears in the chorus.
It's so cute when children sing it!

If you look into it, there are others like the "Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen" that became popular as "PPAP,"
the children's program "Ponkickies,"
and snack names like "Apollo" and "Papico."
If you look for them, you'll find many.

Words containing the "pa" row sounds make you want to pronounce them, and they feel good to say out loud, don't they?

Words that feel good to pronounce are also words that feel good to hear!!

So, I use the name "Yukipoko" without even knowing about such a law.
I hope it becomes a name that feels familiar to all of you.

Thank you very much for reading until the end.
