The general assumption is that the main characters name is Ico [Japanese: 
]. In his village, at the age of 12, horned children are taken to the castle and entombed in a sarcophagus and left to die. Thus was Ico's fate, the villagers apologizing to him as they take him to the castle. Instead, he manages to rock within his stone coffin until it falls and breaks leaving him unconscious on the ground...
romanized as 'ikou' meaning 'let's go'.
is romanized as 'ii ko' meaning 'good child' which would fit Ico's personality.
romanized as 'ikko' meaning one peice or fragment. Considering Ico is a horned child and a part of the ritual undergone by all horned children.
romanized as 'ikko' as well, it means personal, private, or pertaining to oneself.
romanized as 'ikou' meaning remains. *
romanized as 'ikou' meaning orphan. *
