The kanji 仁 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, けいせいもじ). It combines two parts. The left side is a variant of the radical 人 (ひと, hito), meaning "person" or "human." The right side is 二 (に, ni) which means "two." The original meaning of 二 could have been "two people." Thus, it suggests the relationship between two people, which implies the concept of "benevolence," "kindness," or "humanity" in their interaction. It's a visual representation of how human relationships should be ideally.
