Because Japanese names are flexible, other combinations exist, but the overall sense often evokes enduring beauty carried across an age.

Names ending in -yo were fashionable in the Taisho and Showa eras and into postwar decades, then declined in favor of -mi, -na, and -ka endings; Kumiyo now feels classic and somewhat rare.
