Name Meaning Origin Popularity Other Gender Taina Russian Zander Defender of man Greek Share Your Thoughts 7 Comments 諸葛 理沙 Oct 22 at 5:31 pm The meaning of this Japanese name depends on what Japanese characters are used because unlike English – each character (kanji/deographs/pictographs) not only has a meaning it can have 2 or more ways to pronounce it and there are like 100’s of different characters that can be used. For example the character from Kingdom of Hearts uses the characters ? (kai) and ? (ri) which means sea (?) home (?) however in ? has can also be pronounced “Umi“(??), “Una” (??) “Mi” (?) or “Ama” (??) Other characters have the same sounds so ? (kai) meaning sweet and ? (ri) meaning pear could also potentially be used – which would completely change the meaning of the name. You cannot know the meaning of Japanese/Chinese/Korean names unless you know the characters used to write the name. Traditionally the characters aren’t chosen just for their meaning – there are many other considerations such as aesthetics, auspicious numbers (in terms of strokes to write the character), and how it combines with our my?ji or family name (middle names are not traditionally used) which is written before our personal names – there is loads of information here in English to help on this topic: https://en.pon-navi.net/nazuke/name/ Reply 諸葛 理沙 Oct 22 at 5:33 pm apologies for all the (?) above – they replaced the kanji I included in my post :/ Reply Savannah Jul 10 at 11:47 am I chose the name Kairi (Kairi Mae to be specific) for many reasons, but the main reason is that I love the way it sounds and especially how it goes well with my sons name. It’s from a game called Kingdom Hearts and it’s an unofficial Disney princess name. I’ve always dreamt of having a little girl and I wanted her to have a unique and special, beautiful name. The meaning of Kairi is Sea, goddess of spring/growth. My sons name means protector of the water. He is her protective brother for sure. It’s also a tribute to his middle name, which is Kai. Kai is also significant to me in the form of a show called Dragonball Z, where the Kai’s are the “gods” in a sense. Kairi is also a nice match with the name Lillie, her identical twin sister in heaven. Kairi Mae and Lillie Mai. Personally, I love everything about Kairi. The only con would be explaining the pronunciation to family/friends.. but it’s quite simple, and worth it, as it is unique. Kairi- ky-ree, It rhymes with My-Bee. My little Queen bee, Kairi. Reply Simone Nov 18 at 4:13 am *The reason why I chose that name is because it has a beautiful meaning behind it *I like the name because it suits my baby girl Reply Victoria Jan 4 at 4:06 pm My husband named her she is his first biological daughter so I let him name her Reply Kayla Sep 3 at 7:53 am We chose Kairi (Kie-ree) because he loves the Japanese culture. Kairi means ocean in Japanese and I love the ocean so it was perfect for both of us. It also comes from one of our favorite video games, Kingdom Hearts. The only thing I’m not a huge fan of is that everyone calls her Carrie at first, which is understandable, just annoying lol. But I love to original spelling so we will suffer through 🙂 Reply Madeline Apr 13 at 12:54 pm We were looking for a girl name that started with the letter K. After lots of online research we decided to use Kairi (ky-ree). We believe it’s Japanese and has something to do with water. It’s also the name of a character in a video game (Kingdom Hearts), which we actually only learned of after choosing the name. We just liked the name and how it sounds.
