  • 恵子 — "lucky/blessed child"
  • 敬子 — "respectful child"
  • 景子 — "sunlight/view/scenic child"
  • 桂子 — "katsura tree child"
  • 圭子 — "square jewel child"
  • 慶子 — "happy child"
  • 啓子 — "open (one's eyes)/express/spring (season) child"

The suffix ko (子) implies the name is female and the name is almost never given to males. Much less commonly, Keiko can also be written as 螢子, 輕子, or 軽子.
