Etymology

• The name Hina is written in hiragana (ひな), which has no special meaning. However, when written in kanji (陽菜 or 日菜), it could possibly mean :
  • 陽菜 - "light, sun, male" (陽) (hi) and "vegetables, greens" (菜) (na).
  • 日菜 - "sun, day" (日) (hi) and "vegetables, greens" (菜) (na).
• Hina's surname Asahi means "morning sun" (朝陽).
