What each kanji means
The tomoe — the comma-shaped swirl on drums and shrine roofs, and classical Paris (巴里). Tomoe Gozen (巴御前) was Japan's most famous woman warrior; grace and gallantry spiral together.
The Big Dipper (北斗七星) — the constellation that points the way north. A hugely popular modern boys' ending: Haruto (陽斗), Yamato (大和斗); it adds starlit direction.
Reason, logic — the ordering principle of things (理科 is science). Ri names — Riko (理子), Rio (理央), Satori — pair beauty with intellect.
Ambition, will, aspiration — the samurai virtue of a resolved heart. Tsukasa, Shiho (志保), Satoshi: it plants determination at the core of a name.
Originally meaning 'to rank next' or 'Asia', in names it works as an elegant phonetic character for the 'a' sound. Common in feminine names like Ami (亜美) and Arisa (亜里沙), it gives a soft, international feel.
