Where Jun travels
Japanese Brazilian · obedient, pure, genuine
Dual-language · talented and handsome, an alternate romanization of Joon (as in Jun-ho); also a common Japanese name (純, "purity") and Chinese name (俊, "handsome"), and a near-homophone of the English name/month June
Filipino · short for Junior, the everyday name of countless Filipino firstborn sons given their father's exact name. Less a name than an institution: every barangay has a Jun, a Junjun, and Jun's dad, also Jun.
