Meaning & Origin
A small motorized ferry or sampan that serves mostly remote islands.
Kaito is a boy's baby name of Japanese origin, from the Japanese characters kai (海, ocean) and to (翔, soaring), meaning 'soaring over the ocean' or 'sea and sky.' It is a popular contemporary Japanese name evoking freedom and vastness.
Kaito has a beautiful, expansive quality — the pairing of sea and sky creates an image of limitless freedom that perfectly captures the hopes parents hold for a child. It has grown in use in the West as Japanese names have found broader appreciation.
