This is not a random conversion. Every kanji below is genuinely used in Japanese names, and this combination was selected because its stroke total lands on a lucky number under seimei handan (姓名判断) — the traditional check Japanese families use.
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.
Elegance, refinement — the courtly aesthetic (雅び) of Heian aristocrats. Masa names (Masako 雅子, the Empress's name; Miyabi 雅) carry a thousand years of polished taste.
To bloom — the verb of flowers opening. Saki (咲) and Misaki (美咲) are perennial favorites; the character contains 'laugh', so blooming and smiling share one root.
