Meaning & origin
Fusako is a traditional Japanese female name that saw its peak popularity in 1920, a year when many 'ko' names flourished. It was first recorded in the United States in 1913, likely brought by Japanese immigrants. Since then, its usage has remained stable but extremely rare, with no recorded births in recent years. The name reflects a classic Japanese naming pattern and carries connotations of good fortune.
Fusako is a Japanese female name combining elements such as 'fu' (fortune, good luck) and 'ko' (child). The name has been used in Japan since at least the early 20th century, with a peak in the 1920s. It follows the traditional Japanese naming pattern of ending with 'ko', which was especially popular for girls in that era.
