Seiki is Japanese in Origin.

Seiki is a Japanese masculine given name formed from the Sino-Japanese elements sei and ki, with meaning set by the kanji. Common writings include 清輝 “pure radiance,” 誠記 “sincere record,” 正記 “true record,” 聖基 “sacred foundation,” 静紀 “quiet chronicle,” 盛毅 “abundant resolve,” and, as a contemporary symbolic choice, 世紀 “century.” In English it is pronounced roughly SAY-kee.

In steady use in modern Japan, Seiki aligns with the familiar -ki ending in many male names, and its tone ranges from scholarly (…記/…紀) to luminous (…輝) or steadfast (…基/…毅). Variants are produced almost entirely by kanji selection rather than spelling; there is no single “standard” form. Related names that share its elements include Seiichi, Seigo, and Seiya (sei) and Hiroki or Naoki (ki). Informal nicknames such as Sei or Sei-chan are typical, with nuance personalized by the chosen characters.
