Yuki

Origin and meaning of Yuki

Yuki is a unisex Japanese name that, depending on the characters (kanji) used to write it, can mean 'snow' or 'happiness, good fortune.' This duality gives it a special charm, between wintry whiteness and a wish for joy. It is common in Japan for both girls and boys, while outside the country it is rare and tied solely to Japanese culture. Short, sweet and melodious, it evokes purity, lightness and a serene positivity, with the delicacy typical of Japanese names.
