Sui

Origin and meaning of Sui

Sui is a Japanese girls' name with several possible characters, among them 翠 'jade green, emerald' and, by extension, the kingfisher with its green-blue plumage. It thus evokes bright natural colours, freshness and clear beauty. A short, modern and rather refined name in today's Japan, it is chosen for its minimalist elegance. Outside the Japanese archipelago it remains virtually unknown and distinctly exotic.
