What each kanji means
Benevolence — the highest Confucian virtue, and the character in nearly every Japanese emperor's name for a millennium (Hirohito 裕仁, Akihito 明仁, Naruhito 徳仁). Jin (仁) carries imperial moral weight.
Flow, current, style (流儀). Ryu and Nagare readings suggest adaptability — water that finds its way past every obstacle and polishes stones smooth.
Clear, transparent — water or sky with nothing to hide. Sumire (澄玲) and Kiyosumi evoke purity of heart and clarity of mind.
