About The Game

Kaimyou is ...

Kaimyou is a posthumous name given to a deceased person in Buddhist tradition, particularly in Japan. It is used during memorial services and placed on the Ihai (memorial tablet) in honor of the deceased. The Kaimyou represents the individual’s spiritual journey and is usually bestowed by a Buddhist priest. The name often reflects the person’s virtues or spiritual aspirations, and its creation follows specific religious customs. The use of Kaimyou is common in rituals surrounding death, mourning, and the afterlife, and it plays a significant role in the commemoration of ancestors.

This software automatically generates Kaimyou (posthumous Buddhist names).

*Please note that while the term 'Kaimyou' is used as a general reference, in the app, the name may be referred to as 'Houmyou,' 'Hougou,' 'Myougou,' 'Okurina,' or other terms depending on the Buddhist sect.

This comprehensive Kaimyou editing tool is suitable not only for those who wish to receive a Kaimyou for themselves or their family members, but also for use by Buddhist priests. Additionally, since Japanese religions are tolerant, the app can be used by individuals from other religions without any issue. Even if you simply want a cool Kanji alias, you are welcome to use it.
