Hisami is Japanese in Origin.

Hisami is a Japanese given name, read ひさみ (Hisami) in kana, most commonly feminine though occasionally unisex. Its meaning varies by kanji: 久美 ("long-lasting beauty"), 寿美 ("longevity and beauty"), or 久実 ("enduring truth/fruitfulness"), among others. Because Japanese names are semantically flexible, parents choose characters to reflect hoped-for qualities such as durability, grace, or prosperity.

Usage has been recorded since at least the early 20th century, with greater visibility during the Taisho-Showa eras when -mi ("beauty") endings were fashionable for girls' names. Romanization follows Hepburn as Hisami; kana forms are ひさみ/ヒサミ. Variant spellings arise from different kanji choices rather than pronunciation changes. Pet forms include Hisa, Mi-chan, and occasionally Sami. The name also occurs rarely as a surname with other character combinations. Related Japanese names built on the same first element include Hisae and Hisako, while names ending in -mi include Nozomi and Megumi.
