Kairi's Name

Kairi's name is derived from the Japanese kanji word that means sea. I personally like the name Kairi, but there's more to her name than just the literal translation. Among the three best friends, Sora's name means, sky, Kairi name means, sea, while Riku's name means, land/earth.


Kai · ri [ カイリ ]

Sky, sea and land: the sea is almost like the one that divides or keeps the sky and land together and Kairi is just that. Even though Sora and Riku where best friends since Kairi, when she came into the picture and the two young boys admired her, well they kind of became rivals for that reason. During Kingdom Hearts, when Riku thought that Sora betrayed him, he became a little protective of Kairi and decided that he will be the one to save her. Although, by the ending, Riku accepts Sora and tells him to take care of her.
