What each kanji means
Picture, painting. In names like Emi (絵美) it suggests artistic sensibility — a life as beautiful as a painting.
Clear, transparent — water or sky with nothing to hide. Sumire (澄玲) and Kiyosumi evoke purity of heart and clarity of mind.
Peace, level — the 平 of Heian (平安) and 平和 (peace), and the Taira (平) clan of samurai epic. Taira and Hei readings lay names on calm, even ground.
Orchid — the aristocrat of flowers, one of the Four Gentlemen of East Asian art. Ran (蘭) — Detective Conan's heroine — and Ranko bloom with exotic refinement; Dutch learning was 蘭学.
Seat; constellation — the 座 of 星座 (constellations) and za theaters (歌舞伎座). A classical placement character: where one sits among the stars.
