What is the meaning of Japanese name "OSHIN" ?

Answer 1

It is just a name for little girl in the old Japanese drama.
No exact meaning. Today it's hard find this name in Japan.

Answer 2

The large bodies of water that engulf 70% of the earth...to be sarcastic but to tell you a little truth "O" "Shin"

you would have to have given us the kanji characters for the true translation of the name - due to many characters having different sounds e.g the kanji for birth, or fresh - it has 6 ways to read this - and often names are based on old readings, and old dialects, and often Chinese Readings -onyomi vs kunyomi

"o" for instance could mean dirty, to rise, push, to fold, small, inner,et al or an honorific precursor to another meaning such as "O" cha (tea) and Okane (money)
so you would have someone look at the characters directly - o has many instances of character readings

shin might be true, new, parents or relatives, heart -

I am no japanese etymologist or onomatologist but here is one try- one naming could be "inner heart",
and another "honorable relatives"
but you must have translate the character and not the sound - as its a mouth full of air in this case

Answer 3

Niji can be a female's name and is written as 虹 in Japanese. 虹 niji means 'raindow' and お O is a honorific prefix.

Answer 4

I know an OSHIN song, it says;

"Shin for OSHIN is Shin for 'SHINBO'"

SHINBO means patience. If you know about the drama "OSHIN", you will understand this mean.
