100 Japanese Girl Names and Meanings
Japanese can be written with kanji, which are characters representing syllables or words. Or they can be written with hiragana, which are similar to single letters, and katakana, which are like hiragana but used predominantly for foreign words.
Since several kanji may have the same sound, one name can be written in different ways, with various kanji. For this reason, when we give definitions in this article for Japanese girl names, we often provide several options.
