Meanings and history of the name Okimi

Honorable + Kimi (Kimi = Without equal, peerless, sovereign)

A note on O- names: Until the early 20th century, women's names were frequently preceded by the honorific O: Ochiyo, Orie, Okimi. When the woman was addressed with a title such as -san, the O was dropped and she became Chiyo-san, Rie-san, or Kimi-san. The practice has since largely died out, and is now considered rustic. Until the 80's, -ko variants were popular—Chiyoko, Rieko, Kimiko—but now the stem names and fresher-sounding variants like -mi and -na are more common.
