"(What does ANIKO mean anyway?)" Well in the case of Have's Aniko I would presume, that it means "Anime girl" Ani (short for Anime (Japanese for animation) and ko (Girl). Such rather humorous names are often used in anime. For instance the main characters in the anime Project A-ko are Eiko (A-ko) Biko (B-ko) and Shiko (C-ko) which translates to A girl B girl and C girl :) In (IIRC) "Nuku Nuku TV" The girls sitting on either side of the main character in class were named Migiko and Hiko (Left girl and Right girl) :)
