Hime

Hime is the Japanese word for princess or a lady of higher birth. Daughters of a foreign monarch are actually referred to by other terms, e.g. Ōjo (王女), literally king's daughter, even though Hime can be used to address Ōjo. As for the female relatives of the Japanese monarch, the following terms are used ; Naishinnō used for the daughters and granddaughters of an emperor. Joō used for third-generation descendents of an emperor and beyond. Shinnōhi used for the wife of a Shinnō. Ōhi used for the wife of an Ō.

Etymology
Originally a compound of and . The kanji 姫 is from Chinese 姬 (Old Chinese *klɯ), "lady," derived from Ji, the surname of the Zhou. The character is formed as a phono-semantic compound, combining 女 ("woman") with the phonetic 𦣞 (in Old Chinese pronounced *lɯ). ==Proverb==
Proverb
• Ichi hime ni taro "First baby, a girl. Second baby, a boy": It originally meant that having a girl first, and a boy second was easier on the mother as she gained experience before nurturing a boy. However, with each household having fewer children, this is commonly confused as having "one girl and two boys", or three children. This is because "ichi" means "one" in Japanese and "ni" means "two" in Japanese, and therefore could be read as, "One girl, two boys." ==Usage==
Usage
While many use the name Hime to address those of a higher or more noble birth, there are a few who use it as a girl's name. Thus some names either incorporate the word Hime or the giver simply will name said girl Hime. ==Historical==
