Female Japanese Names

A lovely Japanese alternative to Tamara.

Two similarly delicate names, Tamako and Tamaki, can be found in the Japanese community.

Taya has recently jumped into the mainstream name pool, perhaps because of kinship with Maya and Kaya. After five years outside the US Top 1000, it reentered in 2015.

Tetsu is a female name with an unusually strong and powerful meaning. It sounds spunky and cute too.

A more modern nickname for Victoria than Vicky, Tori is used fairly frequently on its own, kept in the public eye by singer Tori Amos and actress Tori Spelling. Still, it's far from fashionable, sinking in the polls significantly since reaching a peak of Number 142 in 1994.

Fragrant floral Japanese name.
