Meaning & History
This name means "water's surface," made up of 水 (sui, mizu, mizu-, mi) meaning "water" and 面 (ben, men, omo, omote, tsura, mo) meaning "face, surface." The word originally came about from a combination of 水 (mi), な (na), the Old Japanese equivalent of の (no) meaning "of" and 面 (mo) with the meaning of "surface."This name is rarely given to girls, if given at all.
