Hime

 is the Japanese word for princess or a lady of higher birth. Daughters of a monarch are actually referred to by other terms, e.g. , literally king's daughter, even though "Hime" can be used to address "Ōjo". 
The word "Hime" initially referred to any beautiful female. The antonym of "Hime" is "Shikome" (醜女), literally "ugly female", though it is archaic and rarely used. "Hime" may also indicate "feminine" or simply "small" when used together with other words, such as "Hime-gaki" (a low line of hedge). 
"Hime" is commonly seen as part of a Japanese female divinity's name, such as Toyotama-hime. The Kanji applied to transliterate "Hime" are 比売 or 毘売 rather than 姫. The masculine counterpart of "Hime" is "Hiko" (彦, 比古 or 毘古,) which is seen as part of Japanese male gods' names, such as Saruta-hiko. Unlike "Hime", "Hiko" is neutral, non-archaic and still commonly used as a modern Japanese male given name, for example Nobuhiko Takada.
Usage.
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".
