Hime-sama means "Princess." Because there was this Swedish guy named Bjorn, and he told us with great gravity that, because Bjorn means "bear," he wished to be referred to as "Mister Bear." (in Japanese, so "Kuma-san")

According to some baby names book, "Sarah" means "princess." So I looked up the kanji for princess and wrote it on my name tag, and I think I ruined his day, because no one wanted to call him Mister Bear, but everyone called me Princess. This has not abated.
