Meaning & History

Japanese transliteration of the English word parsley, referring to the type of flowering plant that has been widely used in European, Middle Eastern and American cooking.
This name can also be written into kanji with 葉 (you, ha) meaning "blade, leaf, needle" being combined with either 芹 (kin, seri), which refers to the Java waterdropwort, or 世 (se, sei, sou, sanjuu, yo) meaning "generation" and 里 (ri, sato), referring to a unit of distance known as ri or else, a village.

This name is very rarely given to girls, if given at all.
