Chizu is a unisex Japanese given name that has been gaining popularity in recent years, particularly among parents looking for unique and meaningful names for their children. The name is composed of two characters: "Chì" (地) which means 'earth' or 'ground', and "Zù" (坐) which signifies 'sitting' or 'to sit'. Thus, Chizu literally translates to 'sitting on the earth' or 'earth sitting'. This combination suggests a deep connection with nature and the environment. The name is often spelled as 'Chizue' in its full form, but it can also be shortened to Chizu. It is typically given to both girls and boys, although it leans slightly more feminine due to its softer sound.
Chizu was born five times in total during 1923.
