A list of 1,000 stage names in the style of utaite, the cover singers of Japanese video sites, from Yuzuha, Mochiko and Amaoto to kotori*, 3ji and Amayadori Club.

About utaite names

Utaite (歌い手, "singer") is the word for people who post song covers on Japanese video sites, a scene that grew up on Niconico under the tag utattemita, "I tried singing it". Singers outside Japan who do the same are often called youtaite. Almost all of them sing under a stage name, and the typical one is a single short handle with no family name: a nickname, a food, a small animal, a weather word, a number, or a lowercase Latin word with a full stop or an asterisk on the end.

This list follows those habits. It mixes short given-name style names (Yuzuha, Sorachi), bouncy sound words (Poporon, Yurayura), sweets and tea (Mochiko, Houjicha), birds and cats (Suzume, Mikeneko), rain, sky and night words (Amaoto, Komorebi, Tsukiyo), flowers, traditional colors, cozy household things, voice and music words (Hanauta), mascot-style names (Hoshimaru), lowercase handles with a symbol (kotori*, yoru.), number puns (3ji, 100ka), English mash-ups for youtaite (Hummingmoth) and names for duos and groups (Amayadori Club).

Most of the Japanese entries are ordinary words and given names, and the rest are nicknames built from them, all in plain romaji with long vowels written out, as in Yuudachi and Ryuusei. None of them uses the voicebank pattern of a surname ending in -ne plus a given name.

How to choose utaite names

  • Say the name out loud with -san or -chan after it. Listeners will type it in comments and say it on streams, so two to four syllables that are easy to hear work better than a long phrase.
  • Look up any Japanese word in a dictionary before you take it, so you know how it is written in kana or kanji and what it means. Komorebi and Hanauta are everyday words, and a native speaker will read them that way.
  • Use one symbol at most. A full stop, an asterisk or an underscore gives a lowercase handle its look, but search boxes often ignore symbols, so make sure the plain word still leads people to you.
  • If you pick a number pun such as 7mi or 8ru, put the reading in your profile. The joke only works when people can tell it is Nanami or Haru.
  • Search the name on every site where you plan to post before you settle on it. Many of these are common words, and another singer may already be using the one you like.

Frequently asked questions

What is an utaite?

An utaite is someone who posts sung covers on Japanese video sites, most often covers of Vocaloid songs, anime songs and J-pop. The word is written 歌い手 and simply means singer, and it is used to set these hobby and online singers apart from professional kashu. Fans outside Japan who post the same kind of covers are often called youtaite.

How do I read number names like 3ji and 100ka?

Some are a plain number with a counter: 3ji is sanji, three o'clock. Others use goroawase, the Japanese habit of reading digits as syllables: 3po is sanpo, a walk, 7mi reads Nanami, 8ru reads Haru, and 100ka reads Momoka, because momo is an old reading of the word for hundred.

Are these the names of real utaite?

The list is written as new stage names in the style of the scene, not as a roll of real singers. Many entries are ordinary Japanese words, such as Suzume, Shigure and Tsukiyo, so someone may already sing under the same word. Search the sites where you will post before you use one.

How is this different from a Vocaloid or VTuber name?

Vocaloid and UTAU names belong to voicebank characters and usually have a surname and a given name. VTuber names are written for an avatar persona and often carry a family name too. An utaite name is the handle of the person singing, so it is usually one word, like Mochiko, nemu. or Hoshimaru, and unit names such as Yoake Chorus are kept for duos and groups.
