Name
In a break with tradition, the name of the princess was chosen by her parents, instead of by the Emperor. It was selected from the teachings of the Chinese philosopher Mencius. In clause 56 of Li Lou II, Mencius said "One who loves the others will be constantly loved by them; one who respects others will be constantly respected by them. (愛人者人恆愛之，敬人者人恆敬之。)"
Aiko, the princess's personal name, is written with kanji character for "love (愛)" and "child (子)" and means "a person who loves others." The princess also has an imperial title, Princess Toshi (敬宮 toshi-no-miya) which means "a person who respects others." This formal title will be dropped if she marries a commoner.
Personal life
Princess Aiko began her education at Gakushuin Kindergarten on April 3, 2006. She left kindergarten on March 15, 2008. On 18 March 2014, Princess Aiko finished at Gakushuin elementary school and on 6 April 2014 she entered Gakushuin Girl's Junior High-school.
