About the name
Rumi is Japanese — kanji for "beauty, flow, lapis" depending on choice — and simultaneously the name the world knows the thirteenth-century Persian poet of ecstatic love by: two traditions, one luminous sound (Beyoncé chose it for a daughter).
Rumi holds rising American use.
Two liquid syllables (ROO-mee). It pairs well with grounded middles (Rumi Jane, Rumi Alexander). On our vibe map it is Cultural Fusion twice over with Boho verses and Celestial spin — the poet and the kanji agree.
