I wasn't thinking of the literal translations.
I guess we're not thinking in the same wavelength. Yamanaka is "middle/center of the mountain". Hirasawa is "flat swamp", i think. Tainaka is "middle of a rice field town". Azusa is "catalpa tree". Tsumugi is "unbleached silk". Mio is "waterway". Yui is "simple". Ritsu is "rhythm". Ui is "sadness/melancholy". EDIT: Source: clicky

Those are very nice literal translations. I would be more happy to see the source of them, if any. |

"Hirasawa" is somewhat fitting for Yui... Their personal names are all pretty fitting too.
Does anyone know anything about Kakifly, the series creator? He/she is as mysterious as Kagami Yoshimizu; not even ANN has any info on him/her. For starters, of course, does anyone have any idea of Kakifly's gender? |

The main characters in K-ON attend an all girls' school, right?
Also, there really isn't much of an English equivalent to "Moe Moe Kyun". It's like a "cute sound", but the kind of cute that is associated with the Moe meme. It's like a childlike thing to say, only not really (because no children actually say that). The best English equivalent might be like a squeal. |

Correct dizzy304's post and add more information.
kanji(Chinese characters) in his/her info has some mistakes. And additional info is from Japanese Wikipedia. Spoiler for dizzy304's post:

More accurately it's comedy and in the case of the manga, 4-koma.
