What each kanji means
A classical character used for centuries in Buddhist transliteration — most famously in Amida (阿弥陀), the Buddha of Infinite Light. In names it carries a gentle, protective nuance, as it originally depicted a welcoming slope of a hill.
Good, virtuous — plainly and solidly good. Ryo (良), Sakura (咲良), Nagisa: the 良 of Nara (奈良) adds honest quality without ornament.
