Kuniko

Kuniko is a baby girl name originating from Japan. Meaning “child from the country,” this baby name is associated with living near nature, surrounded by serenity and peace. But if you’re a fan of royalty, you might also enjoy the theory that Kuniko was once the name of an imperial princess in Japan. Back in the 1200s, the Japanese ruler—aka Empress Kuniko—was generous with her family and loyal to her faith. Kuniko wasn’t just an interesting figure in name and title though, she was also a surrogate mother and eventually a nun. Whether baby you’re raising baby near the tranquil lakeside or want her to be as kind as can be, the name Kuniko won’t lead you astray.
