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.
Reason, logic — the ordering principle of things (理科 is science). Ri names — Riko (理子), Rio (理央), Satori — pair beauty with intellect.
Early, swift — the freshness of morning. In names like Sayaka (早耶香) and Saori (早織) it adds briskness and a head start in life.
