According to http://home.nc.rr.com/brotman/kodokan/, Kodokan means "House of Ancient Ways". Thought maybe that could be worked into the article. --Pereza 03:45, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

The ko in that website's Kodokan is a different kanji character than the ko in the Kodokan from this article; they're pronounced the same way but have different meanings. The Kodokan school mentioned at that website is a karate school that has no connection to judo. It's a bit confusing because the two names are written differently in Japanese, but when transliterated into English characters they look the same. Fumblebruschi (talk) 19:23, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
