Meaning & History

From Japanese 飛 (to) meaning "to fly", 翔 (to) meaning "soar, fly" combined with 露 (ro) meaning "dew, drewdrop; naked, bare". Other kanji combinations are possible. This is the name of a character, a forest spirit, in the Japanese animated movie My Neighbor Totoro (1988), although in this case the name is a mispronunciation of the Japanese word tororu, meaning "troll".
