Meaning & origin
Seichi is a Japanese name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1913. Its peak year came in 1922, reflecting a modest but notable usage during the early 20th century. The name has remained stable in its rarity ever since, with no recent resurgence. Its top states are unknown due to its low frequency, but the name carries a clear Japanese origin and cultural heritage, likely associated with first- or second-generation Japanese Americans. The meaning, rooted in kanji for righteousness and wisdom, lends the name a dignified quality, though specific interpretations depend on the chosen characters.
Seichi is a Japanese name typically written with two kanji characters. The first kanji 'sei' (正) means 'correct, righteous' or '圣' meaning 'holy, sacred', and the second 'chi' (智) means 'wisdom, intellect'. It is a traditional masculine name that saw modest use in Japan during the early 20th century, particularly the 1920s.
