And Kuro really lives up to being a black mirror.
I cannot find anything for 大介 but the first kanji means 'big' while the other (accoding to Kiten) means 'shellfish'.
九重 (Rin's surname) means 'ninefold' according to Kiten. The first kanji means '9' and the second means '-fold' (because in this case it is pronounced え). Mimi's name is just two times 'beautiful' (美). The second kanji (々) means a repetition of the first kanji. Her surname, 宇佐, does not appear to have a meaning. The first kanji, 宇, means 'counter for buildings' but it can also means 'house, roof or heaven' (although my wife insists that 'house' is 家). The second kanji, 佐, means 'assistant' or 'help'.
白井 (Shirai) means 'white well', while her first name I cannot recall. I just know it is 'Sae'. 小矢島 (Oyajima) has no compound meaning but the kanji mean 'small', 'arrow' and 'island'. His first name 剣太 (Kenta) appears not to have a compound meaning. The first kanji is 'sword' while the second appears to mean 'plump, thick'.
And did we not establish that 'レイジ' (Reiji) means 'rage'?
