Submitted Name Revision History

This name doesn't have a meaning since it is written phonetically and it is used most in Okinawa.

As a word, it (竃/竈) refers to a hearth or a kitchen furnace.

This name was used most commonly from the Meiji period (1868-1912) to the first half of the 20th century, albeit occasionally, but nowadays, it is very rarely given to girls, if given at all.

One fictional bearer of this name is Kamado Ueshita (上下 かまど), one of the characters in the manga and anime, Future Diary or Mirai Nikki (未来日記) in Japanese.
