Please read this disclaimer carefully before using Namaegen.

General Disclaimer

The information provided by Namaegen ("we," "our," or "us") on this Japanese name generator website is for general informational, entertainment, and creative purposes only. All information on the Site is provided in good faith; however, we make no representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, adequacy, validity, reliability, availability, or completeness of any information or names generated on the Site.

Cultural Authenticity and Accuracy

While we strive to provide authentic Japanese names based on real naming conventions, cultural research, and linguistic patterns, please be aware that:

Not Official Records: The names generated are not verified against official Japanese family registries (koseki) or government records.
Cultural Nuances: Japanese naming conventions are deeply complex and regionally variable. A name that seems appropriate to non-Japanese users may carry unintended connotations or associations in Japanese culture.
Historical Context: Some names may be associated with specific historical periods, social classes, or fictional contexts that may not be appropriate for all uses.
Family Considerations: Real Japanese families carefully consider stroke count, numerology, and family traditions when naming children. Our generator cannot account for these deeply personal factors.

Recommendation: For actual naming of children, legal documents, or official use, always consult with Japanese speakers, cultural experts, or appropriate authorities.

Fictional characters in anime, manga, novels, and games

Kanji Meanings and Interpretations

The Kanji meanings and translations provided are:

Many Kanji characters carry multiple layers of meaning, poetic connotations, and cultural references that cannot be fully captured in brief translations. The meanings we provide are starting points for understanding, not definitive interpretations.

Religious and Spiritual Significance

Some Japanese names have religious (Buddhist, Shinto), spiritual, or ceremonial significance. We do not guarantee that generated names are appropriate for religious or ceremonial purposes. If you intend to use a Japanese name in a spiritual or religious context, please consult with appropriate cultural or religious authorities.
