Worldwide, 重信 (Fusako , 重信 , Shigenobu ) is quite a common principally feminine, but scarcely boy's given name. The forename 重信 is habitual in Japan, where it is quite a rare female name, the United States, where it is a very rare primarily feminine, but very seldom male name, and China, where it is a very rare boy's name. Very seldom, 重信 is the last name as well as the forename.
重信 is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Fusako Kuroda , the operatic character in the opera Das verratene Meer by Hans Werner Henze; a 33-year old widow.
