Kazumi

Meaning of Kazumi

Kazumi is a unisex Japanese name formed from the elements kazu (“harmony” or “peace”) and mi (“beauty”), suggesting a graceful balance. Pronounced kah-zoo-mee (/kɑzʌmi/), it first appeared in early 20th-century U.S. birth records and registered between six and ten occurrences annually from 1915 to 1931. Its highest showing was a rank of 501 in 1916, though it never quite stormed the top 500—a detail that may appeal to parents seeking distinction over ubiquity. In Japan, Kazumi’s gender-neutral usage underscores cultural openness, while its combined meanings continue to resonate with families drawn to notions of elegance grounded in tranquility.
