Kiyomi (given name)

Kiyomi (清見, きよみ) is a Japanese given name, predominantly for females. It is composed of two kanji:

• 清 (Kiyo), meaning "pure," "clean," or "clear."
• 見 (Mi), meaning "see," "view," or "look."

Therefore, the name can be interpreted as "clear vision," "pure sight," or "clear beauty." The exact nuance depends on the individual interpretation and the intentions of the parents when choosing the name.

Variations of the name can be created using different kanji for Kiyo and Mi, potentially altering the meaning. Other possible kanji combinations include, but are not limited to:

• 聖美 (Kiyomi): Using 聖 for "holy," "sacred," or "virtuous," and 美 for "beautiful."
• 喜代美 (Kiyomi): Using 喜代 for "generation of joy" and 美 for "beautiful."

The popularity of the name has varied over time, but it remains a recognizable and relatively common name in Japan.
