What each kanji means
Originally meaning 'to rank next' or 'Asia', in names it works as an elegant phonetic character for the 'a' sound. Common in feminine names like Ami (亜美) and Arisa (亜里沙), it gives a soft, international feel.
To emerge, rise — the 出 of 日の出 (sunrise) and 出世 (rising in the world). Izuru and De readings push forth: talent that will out.
The 琉 of Ryukyu (琉球) — Okinawa's old kingdom — and of lapis-like gemstone glass. Ruka (琉夏) and Ryuto (琉斗) carry southern-island brilliance, a modern favorite.
