Kanji reading[edit]

According to her kanji name, 三瓶 由布子 should be written as Yuuko Sanpei without the long ū because the second u is the 布 kanji. I've changed the article accordingly. —29th ((☎)) 15:56, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yūko SanpeiYuuko Sanpei – Her name is spelled 由 yu + 布 u + 子 ko. Romanizing 由布子 as Yūko is like romanizing 井上 as Inōe and 松浦 as Matsūra. See also Yuu Watase and Yuu Kashii; they are not romanized Yū because they are originally 悠/由 yu + 宇 u. (Though 悠 is usually read yū, there are sometimes exceptions on personal names and it is obvious that 宇 takes the final u.) Similarly, 布 takes the middle u in this case.
