Some families hear the Japanese term kaizen ('continuous improvement') behind it; others simply like the pairing of a punchy opening with a calm ending. It has no older name tradition, so routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'KYE-uh-zen').

It appears only very rarely for boys in the U.S. Rare, invented, and modern.
