Meaning & History

From 姫 (hime) meaning "princess" (also used for this name as 妃), derived from a combination of 日 (hi) meaning "sun" (used as a prefix or appellation in reference to the imperial family) and 女 (me) meaning "woman."
It can also be written with two kanji, a (partial) hi kanji like 陽 (same as 日) or 広 meaning "spacious, vast, wide" combined with a me kanji such as 女, 芽/萌 meaning "bud, sprout" or 愛 meaning "love, admiration."
