Dear Scott,
Kanji (Japanese) Hanzi (Chinese) Hanja (Korean) and Han tu (Vietnamese)
"漢字", meaning "Han (dynasty) words" (characters) are all the same, just in different languages.
The information sent to you is an excerpt from a Japanese dictionary. In Japanese, unlike in Chinese, this character is not used for proper names (surnames)
In Chinese the character 麗 "li" has the following meanings;
Adjective; beautiful, magnificent, elegant, pretty
Verb (Literary): depend on, attach onself to
Noun; Li ( a surname)
With regards,
I.Nagy
