Around the globe, サイトウ (サイトウ , Saito , Saitou ) is quite a rare gender-neutral given name. The first name サイトウ is characteristic of Japan, where it is a rare gender-neutral name, China, where it is a rare principally male, but scarcely girly name, and India, where it is a very rare unisex name. Much less frequently, サイトウ is the last name as well as the forename.
サイトウ is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Saito , the character in the Ghost in the Shell, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and Saito Hiraga , the Zero no Tsukaima character, The Familiar of Zero.
