Our generator can help you select a Japanese name for a girl, a boy or unisex variants. Each name is written with English letters (romaji) for simple understanding and duplicated in Hiragana and Kanji scripts with the meaning of each character.

While building this generator, we took into account the peculiarities of Japanese culture.

In Japan, parents have the freedom to choose any name for their child, but it is crucial to adhere to authorized characters and respect cultural traditions.
Traditional Japanese last names are often derived from the names of geographical locations.
Also, in this country, last names come before first names.

Within our database, you can find over 20,000 first names and approximately 10,000 last names.
