63 Japanese Girl Names (With Meanings)

Baby girls in Japan often have names that come from Japanese words, such as Cho. In Japanese, Cho means “dawn” so it would be a beautiful and appropriate name for a baby born at daybreak. Other Japanese girl names have more subtle meanings. For example, Ishi means “stone,” but it doesn’t necessarily mean her mother and father love stones – perhaps they hope her to be strong when she grows up.
