What each kanji means
The lotus (芙蓉) — also a classical epithet for Mt. Fuji (芙蓉峰). In names like Fuka (芙香) it combines floral elegance with the mountain's grandeur.
Lovely, graceful — 綺麗 (beautiful) contains it. Rei (麗) and Reina (麗奈) project polished, dazzling elegance; the character depicts a deer's paired antlers, symmetry as beauty.
Arrow — straight to the target. Yajiro and Shinya (伸矢) carry directness; Hachiman shrines sell arrows (破魔矢) that break misfortune.
