黒田明史
(check with client) KURODA


Explanation:
For his given name, I found references on the 'net to the following:

Tomoshi: 阿部 朋史（あべ ともし）www.arajun.com/bears/members/
and
Tomofumi: 石山朋史（いしやま ともふみ）www4.point.ne.jp/‾slash/pc-link.html -

As always with names, best to check with the client if possible...

Also:
Tomohito: 佐藤朋史（さとう ともひと）@ www.glico-dairy.co.jp/tvcm/cream_on_pudding3.html

The most *common* reading would be Tomofumi, though.

Good luck!
