Originating from Japan, the name 'Iori' is of unknown meaning but has been popularized through various forms of media and culture. It is considered a unisex name, though it's more commonly used for males. Iori is composed of two kanji characters: 栄 (Ei), which means 'prosperity' or 'flourish,' and 理 (Ri), which signifies 'reason' or 'principle.' However, the combination does not directly translate to a specific meaning. In recent years, it has gained international recognition due to its usage in popular anime series such as 'Kingdom Hearts' and 'Naruto.'
"Between 2002 and 2021, the name Iori was given to a total of 95 babies, with the most popular years being 2011 and 2012, each seeing 9 births."
