Character data and name data stay separate
KANJIDIC2 supplies the readings, nanori, stroke count, frequency field, grade classification and English character glosses. JMnedict supplies the example personal-name records. The Ministry of Justice remains the official reference for current child-name character rules.
Source boundary
KANJIDIC2 supplies the character metadata. The jōyō/jinmeiyō grade interpretation is a reference layer; the Ministry of Justice remains the controlling official source for child-name character rules. Example names are imported from JMnedict.
