Adding to what EP said, it can also be the phonetic character 奈 'na', which I believe comes from one of the characters in 'Nara' (a city).

I don't know if "na" itself is a name, but it is certainly used in others. It can mean "greens" (vegetables) Two names that I know that it is used in are Nana and Rina.

I have more time now to look in my dictionary. According to this we have 4 different ones. They are:The phonetic one used in Nara (as Helena said),
"To pay, supply, accept, or store,"
"vegetables,"
and "south"
I don't know if these are used in names.Hope I helped,

The phonetic one used in Nara,
"To pay, supply, accept, or store,"
"vegetables,"
and "south"I'm not sure which character pronounced "Na" is "pay, supply, accept, store." The other three are all definitely used in names. Na in itself is not a name as far as I know, but Nana is a common girls' name which can be written with any one of these characters, followed by a symbol which is the Japanese equivalent of ditto marks. "Na" is also an element in many popular girl's names like Hina, Yuuna, Aina, etc.
