Meaning & History

From 峰/嶺/峯/岑 (mine) meaning "peak, summit," also written with multiple kanji (+ phonetic mi), with a mi kanji like 美 meaning "beauty" or 三 meaning "three" and a ne kanji such as 根 meaning "root," 禰 meaning "ancestral shrine," 子, referring to the sign of the Rat, or 年 meaning "year."

It was most commonly used before the 20th century, though not nearly as common as the top names of the late Edo period (1603-1868), e.g. Kiku. Nowadays, it is very uncommonly to rarely used.
