From Evergreens to Blossoms: The Changing Plant Motifs in Japanese Female Names
Original language description
In the last few decades, flowery female names have surged in popularity in Japan, along with other nature motifs, reflecting desired qualities and aspirations. Although plant motifs have always been found among female names, the popularity of particular plants has been changing, and some once common names have fallen into disuse, lacking any appeal to the modern Japanese. This paper examines plant motifs and their symbolism in recent female names compared to names bestowed a century ago, and discusses how these changes in plant selection reflect the changes in the values and priorities of Japanese society.
