Symbolism

Embodies the fusion of mythological significance (dragon) and land (hill), representing resilience, wisdom, and ancestral connection to place. It suggests a lineage of dignity and natural harmony.

Etymology: Derived from the Japanese elements 'ryu' (竜 or 龍), meaning 'dragon', and 'zaki' or 'saki' (崎), meaning 'cape' or 'promontory'. However, in this case, 'zaki' may be a variant or misreading of 'yama' (山) for 'hill'; more accurately, the name likely comes from 'ryu' (dragon) and 'zaka' (坂), meaning 'slope' or 'hillside', making it 'dragon hill' or 'dragon slope'. Common kanji include 竜崎 or 龍崎.
