Kaoru is a Japanese given name for males or females. The name's meaning varies depending on its written form: *薫/郁/芳 — "fragrance", common for both males and females *馨/香 — "fragrance", more common for females *かおる — purely phonetic form in hiragana; no inherent meaning *かをる — same as above, using を as an archaic substitute for お *カオル — phonetic form in katakana As a distinctly unisex name, its usage in popular culture has risen in recent years to give the named character an air of androgyny. Such characters commonly have overt androgynous qualities as well. A similar name, in terms of both pronunciation and meaning, is Kaori. It is used exclusively for females. ==People== *Kaoru 薫 (m) (one of the guitarists of Dir En Grey) *Kaoru Abe 阿部薫 (m) (free Jazz saxophonist) *Kaoru Fujino かほる (voice actor) *Inoue Kaoru 馨 (m) (statesman) *Kaoru Ichinose 一ノ瀬薫 (f) (manga author) *Kaoru Ikeya 薫 (m) (astronomer) *Kaoru Ishikawa (m) (business theorist, developer of the Ishikawa diagram) *Kaoru Izima (photographic artist specialising in 'bodies' in supposed murder scenes) *Kaoru Kobayashi *Kaoru Kurosu (voice actor) *Kaoru Maeda 薫 (f) (professional wrestler) *Kaoru Mori 薫 (f) (manga author) *Kaoru Sugayama かおる (f) (volleyball player) *Kaoru Uno 薫 (m) (mixed martial artist) *Kaoru Usui 薫 (m) (photographer) *Kaoru Wada 薫 (m) (composer) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kaoru」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
