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.
Sunshine, the positive principle of yin-yang. Arguably the defining name kanji of this generation: Hinata (陽向), Haruto (陽翔), Hina (陽菜) all top the charts. Parents choose it for warmth that draws people in.
Poetry. A romantic modern choice — Uta (詩) and Shiori (詩織) — for a child whose life reads like verse.
