What each kanji means
Seat; constellation — the 座 of 星座 (constellations) and za theaters (歌舞伎座). A classical placement character: where one sits among the stars.
Beauty — the most direct aesthetic blessing in the language. Mi endings (Emi 恵美, Manami 愛美, Yumi 由美) have adorned generations; the character itself depicts a great offering, beauty as generosity.
Blessing, grace, generosity. A perennial in Japanese names for generations — Megumi (恵) and Keiko (恵子) — expressing the wish for a kind child who both receives and gives blessings.
Flow, current, style (流儀). Ryu and Nagare readings suggest adaptability — water that finds its way past every obstacle and polishes stones smooth.
