Around the globe, Nakano (ナカノ , Nakano , 中野 ) is quite a rare largely male, but seldom female first name. The forename Nakano is characteristic of Japan, where it is a rare epicene name, China, where it is a very rare primarily male, but scarcely female name, and Indonesia, where it is a very rare unisex name. Much less frequently, Nakano is the last name as well as the forename.
Nakano is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Nakano Hamu , the Japanese virtual YouTuber.
