What each kanji means
To govern, to heal — order restored. Osamu (治) and Haruji recall the Meiji (明治) era of modernization; a name for one who sets things right.
Generation, era, to represent. Kiyo (代) endings like Kazuyo (和代) and Michiyo (美代) link the child to the chain of generations — a classic of Showa-era elegance now charmingly retro.
To lean on, to trust. In names like Yui (優依) it suggests someone others can rely on — a child surrounded by trust and support.
