Meaning & origin
Fujiko is a Japanese feminine name that enjoyed modest use in the early 20th century, with its peak year recorded as 1922. Despite being first recorded in U.S. data in 1914, the name has remained rare, with an essentially stable trajectory and no significant revival in recent years. It appears so infrequently that no top states or rank percentile can be reliably cited; instead, the name represents a quiet, culturally specific choice that has never crossed into broader American popularity. The name is clearly feminine by construction, using the classic -ko suffix, and its meaning ties directly to the wisteria flower, a beloved symbol in Japanese art and literature.
Fujiko is a Japanese compound name combining 'fuji' (藤, wisteria) and 'ko' (子, child). Wisteria is a culturally significant flower in Japan, symbolizing love, tenderness, and longevity. The suffix -ko has been commonly used in feminine given names, especially during the early 20th century, though it has become less frequent in modern naming trends.
