Meaning & History
Etymology
Takuto is a masculine Japanese given name written with various kanji combinations. The most common spelling includes the character 拓 (taku) meaning "expand, open, support," combined with either 斗 (to), which refers to a Chinese constellation (the Big Dipper) or a unit of volume, or 人 (to) meaning "person." Other combinations include 卓 (taku, "eminent, high" ), 巧 (taku, "skillful"), 焚 (taku, "burn"), or 寛 (taku, "forgive, tolerant") with various second characters. As with many Japanese names, the kanji used can reflect different meanings or parental wishes.
