Takashi

Takashi is a brilliant boy’s name of Japanese origin. Meaning “prosperous” or “boasting,” a name as tied to pure talent as Takashi might be all it takes for your tiny tot. And although Takashi’s definitions may vary depending on the combination of kanji—you might come across similar meanings, like “esteem,” “honor,” or “venerate”—it remains a title worthy of a toast. The name Takashi is also carried by Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami, whose collaborations with the fashion brand Louis Vuitton made him a household name in the world of high art.
