Etymology
The word Yoko derives from the English pronunciation of the Japanese name "洋子" , which in Japanese is pronounced Yōko. The pronunciation Yōko is more formal, and is in Japanese used for most official purposes. The full title of Yoko is Yōko no Teikoku (洋子の帝国), meaning "the Empire of Yoko".
