Some fans have whispered the theory of Jaiko’s real name, but in conclusion, the author Fujiko F. Fujio did not dare to use her real name.
Why didn’t the author set his real name? I never forgot or bothered to do so. I didn’t dare to set my real name for the following reasons.
A girl with the same name could be bullied

The reason why he didn’t set his real name was that a girl with the same name as Jaiko could be bullied.
This reason was revealed in the show “~The Birth Story of Doraemon: A Letter from Fujiko F. Fujio~”.
The author once said, “Let’s not call a girl a Jaiko. It’s a statement that shows that he was concerned about bullying by children.
Why was the author so concerned about bullying? It has to do with Jaiko’s characterization.
She was an un-girly, arrogant character

Her character in the manga is as arrogant as her brother, and it’s no exaggeration to say that she is a female version of Gian. When compared to Shizuka-chan, her character’s personality is noticeably worse, and she is not a girlish character at all.
What if she has the same name as such an un-girlish character? If you’re a child, you can easily give them the nickname Jaiko, or it can lead to bullying.
No one would feel happy about being given the nickname Jaiko, even if it’s Shizuka-chan.
In the anime, the author has taken her thoughts into consideration and changed her from an arrogant personality to a girlish one. It’s interesting to compare the two because the anime and the manga are like different people, so if you only know one or the other, you’ll be surprised, and it’s interesting to compare them once.
If she had a girlish personality from the beginning, her real name might have been set up like the other characters.
