Japanese names are packed to the bring with meaning, and Yoshikazu is no exception. Depending on its spelling, this masculine moniker can mean "justice," "beautiful," lovely," "peace," "harmony," "good luck," and the interchangeable "fragrant or righteous first son." Although that perfect baby smell is guaranteed, you'll have to wait and see how the other elements come into play. Perhaps your Yoshikazu will achieve true harmony on the greens like legendary Japanese pro-golfer Yoshikazu Haku. Or, if visual arts are their calling, they can look up to celebrated animator and director Yasuhiko, best known for his Mobile Suit Gundam anime. And who could resist a name with the built-in short form Yoshi?
