Kiyomi (清美) is actually two Japanese characters. 清 ('Kiyo') means 'clear' or 'pure' in English. 美 ('mi') means 'beauty' in English. 'Kiyomi' (清美) means 'pure beauty' in English. Kiyomi is actually a traditional Japanese girl's name dating back many centuries.
+Victoria Foreman named her 'Kiyomi' because she fell in love with her as soon as she saw our her, calling her a "pure beauty" in my wife's eyes.
