Taki, derived from the Japanese word "tachi," meaning "to strike" or "to stand out," is an androgynous name of Japanese origin. Traditionally given to both males and females, Taki has gained international recognition due to its unique sound and spelling. It consists of three letters: T, A, and K, with the vowel 'a' being pronounced as in "cat." The name ends with a hard 'k' sound, similar to that in "kick." In Japanese culture, names often hold significant meanings, and Taki is no exception. Its meaning can be interpreted as encouraging individuals to stand out or make their mark in life.
The name Taki was relatively uncommon, with only five babies named Taki born in 1982.
