What is a Hime

What is a hime? I know many of us is new about this word of only if you're not a anime lover or shall I say Otaku. Hime is a Japanese word means princess. A word hime is often heard in any anime series or movies. Literally hime is  king's daughter, even though Hime can be used to address Ōjo.

Usually, a "Hime" will go through a ceremony, in which she is considered a "Daoshi" and then later becomes a Hime. The ceremony is similar to the Japanese tea ceremony, and is usually up to 3 hours.

Hime is maybe used as Prefix or Suffix . Just like these following examples ;

  • Hime-sama which means Princess or as a sign of Majestyness . 
  • Tsuki-hime it means the moon princess. 
While many use the name Hime to address those of a higher or more noble birth, there are a few who use it as a girl's name. Thus some names either incorporate the word Hime or the giver simply will name said girl Hime.
This is the reason why Himedere is compared into a Princess like attitude. They are rude, bossy and others that could emphasize that they are a princess.
