What is the meaning of the name Tomieko ?

Tomieko is Japanese in Origin.

Tomieko is a rare modern feminine given name drawing on Japanese name-building patterns. It appears to fuse Tomie with the classic suffix -ko, meaning “child.” Tomie itself can be written with various kanji, such as 富江 (“abundant wealth” + “inlet/bay”) or 登美恵 (“rise” + “beauty” + “favor”), while the element tomi often signals “wealth” or “abundance.” Taken together, Tomieko can be read broadly as “child of abundance” or “blessed/beautiful child,” depending on the kanji a bearer might choose.

In usage, Tomieko is attested sporadically in English‑speaking countries from the late twentieth century and is far less common than related Japanese names. Variants and near‑relatives include Tomiko, Tomie, Tomi, Tomeko, and Tameko; it sits alongside familiar -ko names like Keiko and Emiko in form. In Japan the exact spelling Tomieko is unconventional, so its meaning is interpretive unless specific kanji are assigned.
