“Talent, virtue and popularity — a well-rounded destiny.”

What each kanji means
Excellence, brilliance — also the character Japan uses for 'England/English'. In names like Hideki (英樹) and Eiji (英二) it promises outstanding talent; it originally meant a flower at full bloom.
Wealth, abundance — the 富 of Mt. Fuji (富士山). Names like Tomiko (富子) and Fuji-related names inherit both prosperity and Japan's most sacred silhouette.
Reason, logic — the ordering principle of things (理科 is science). Ri names — Riko (理子), Rio (理央), Satori — pair beauty with intellect.
Flow, current, style (流儀). Ryu and Nagare readings suggest adaptability — water that finds its way past every obstacle and polishes stones smooth.
