Etymology

 * The name Hideko is written in katakana (ヒデコ), which has no special meaning. However, when part of the name Hide (ヒデ) is written in kanji (秀, 英 or 日出), it could possibly mean:
 * 秀 - "excellent, outstanding".
 * 英 - "excellent, fine".
 * 日出 - "sun, day" (日) (hi) and "exit, leave, go out, come out, put out, protrude" (出) (de).

Trivia

 * The "Hi" in her name is an alternate reading of the Japanese character for one, which combines together with Fumiko and Mika to be a pun for one, two and three.
