Meaning & History
Derived from the Japanese kanji 楽 (konomi) meaning "music; comfort, ease" or a combination of 好 (kono) meaning "fondness, what one likes" and 美 (mi) meaning "beauty". Further combinations with three kanji can be 小之美 (konomi) made of 小 (ko) meaning "infant, baby", 之 (no) meaning "of" and 美 (mi) meaning "beauty" or 木乃実 (konomi) a combination of 木 (ko) meaning "tree, wood", 乃 (no) meaning "of" and 実 (mi) meaning "truth".Except for 美 (mi) that is read with the Go-On Reading, all the other kanji are read with the Kun Reading. However It's not rare that Konomi is written with Hiragana script as このみ (Konomi) or a mixed Kanji and Hiragana way such as この実 (Konomi) and 好み (Konomi).Other Kanji combinations are also possible.
