Riku

Rikuの由来と意味

Riku is a Japanese boys' name meaning 'land, dry land, continent,' often written with the character 陸. It suggests solidity, stability and vastness, like the earth that supports everything. Thanks to its short, decisive sound and its ease for Western ears, it ranks among the most loved and common boys' names in contemporary Japan. Beyond Japan, however, it remains rare and distinctly exotic.
