Mahiro (まひろ) is a unisex Japanese given name.[3][4]

Meaning

[edit]

When used as a name, the Kana writing まひろ is the standard reading of Mahiro. While this name is usually applied to females, it has also been used as a unisex.[4] The phonetic is written the same for both sexes and has no inherent meaning.[3] For other kanji variant forms the first sound in Mahiro is "Ma". Sounds starting with "Ma" often have meanings that evoke kindness and tolerance.[1][2] Mahiro can be written in dozens of different ways that individually exceed 100 for both sexes. Unique readings which are probable guesses are then split off from the larger group. For example, as a boy's name Mahiro has an extended list from one source that includes at least 117 syllabaries of which 12 are unique.[2]
