Meaning & History
Derived from the Japanese kanji 塩 (shio) meaning "salt (a symbol of purification)" or 汐 (shio) meaning "eventide, salt water, opportunity" combined with 見 (mi) meaning "to see, the look or appearance of something". Other kanji combinations are also possible. Shiomi was used as a feminine given name in the Edo Period (1600-1868) but nowadays is more common as a surname or a fictional name.
