Japanese names that mean snow

雪 (yuki) is one of the clearest nature names in Japanese. On its own it gives Yuki, and with other kanji it gives Miyuki (美雪 beautiful snow, 深雪 deep snow), Koyuki (小雪, light snow), Yukina and Yukino for girls, and Yukito for boys.

A lovely rarer choice is 六花 (Rikka), literally six flowers: an old poetic name for a snowflake, after its six points. Note that many people named Yuki write it with other kanji, such as 由紀 or 優希, which have nothing to do with snow.
