Abstract
A liquid discharge head includes: a nozzle plate having a nozzle from which a liquid is to be discharged in a discharge direction, the nozzle having a cylindrical hole having periodical convex portions and concave portions on a sidewall of the nozzle in the discharge direction, a diameter of an outermost portion of the nozzle in the discharge direction being smaller than an average diameter of minimum values and maximum values of diameters of the cylindrical shape. The average diameter is obtained by: Average diameter=(Sum of minimum values+Sum of maximum values)/(Count of minimum values+Count of maximum values).
