Sparse evidence: this pair occurs in fewer than two distinct written forms in the active corpus. Treat it as a recorded example, not an established pattern.
Recorded names

Name readings containing both characters

The pair only has to occur in the same written form; the two kanji are not required to be adjacent unless counted in the adjacency statistics above.

Evidence boundary

Co-occurrence is not popularity or etymology

The pair relation comes from exact JMnedict source rows through the compact kanji-usage index. KANJIDIC2 contributes character metadata only. A high corpus count can reflect dictionary coverage and should not be read as a national usage frequency.
