What each kanji means
Clear, transparent — water or sky with nothing to hide. Sumire (澄玲) and Kiyosumi evoke purity of heart and clarity of mind.
Vermilion; devotion — the 丹 of 丹精 (devoted care) and red shrine lacquer. Tan and Ni readings paint names with sincere, hand-polished effort.
The 莉 of jasmine (茉莉) — borrowed for its delicate floral scent and soft 'ri' sound. A defining character of contemporary girls' names: Riko (莉子), Rin (莉音), Himari (陽茉莉).
