Our tool can help you select a Japanese name for a boy, a girl, or a unisex variant. Each name is written in English letters (romaji) for easy reading and duplicated in Hiragana and Kanji, complete with the meaning of each character.

When creating this Japanese name generator, we took into account all the peculiarities of Japanese culture:

  • In Japan, parents have the freedom to choose any name for their children, but they must adhere to authorized characters and respect cultural traditions.
  • Traditional Japanese surnames often derive from geographic locations.
  • Furthermore, in this country, surnames always come before given names.

In our database, you can find over 20,000 personal names and approximately 10,000 authentic surnames.

How to use the generator?

  1. First, select the gender (male, female) or choose a random selection.
  2. Then, you can specify the letters the first and last name should start or end with.
  3. If you want to create a Japanese name based on your real name, type it into the separate field.
  4. Press the button, and the system will generate a list of 30 random Japanese names.

What to do with the generated names?

These ideas for female, male, and unisex names are perfect for novelists, anime artists, manga authors, and any other creative personalities. If you are a gamer looking for a cool Japanese nickname for your profile, you can choose a variant based on the deep meaning behind the kanji or just a beautiful combination of syllables.
