What each kanji means
Elegance, refinement — the courtly aesthetic (雅び) of Heian aristocrats. Masa names (Masako 雅子, the Empress's name; Miyabi 雅) carry a thousand years of polished taste.
Warrior, martial valor — the 武 of bushido (武士道) and warlord Takeda Shingen (武田信玄). Takeshi (武) carries samurai strength; the character's roots mean 'to stop conflict' — strength as peacekeeping.
Reason, logic — the ordering principle of things (理科 is science). Ri names — Riko (理子), Rio (理央), Satori — pair beauty with intellect.
Blessing, grace, generosity. A perennial in Japanese names for generations — Megumi (恵) and Keiko (恵子) — expressing the wish for a kind child who both receives and gives blessings.
Flow, current, style (流儀). Ryu and Nagare readings suggest adaptability — water that finds its way past every obstacle and polishes stones smooth.
