The Origin and Meaning of Japanese NamesIn ancient Japan, names were the privilege of the nobles. Commoners only had names and not surnames.
In the ancient ruling class, the surname and surname first appeared. The surname was a political organization, and the surname was named according to the position of the clan in the imperial court or the place where they lived or governed. For example, the Kibe clan was named after the Kibe department in charge of sacrifice, while the Izumo clan and the Ohmi clan were related to the place they ruled. Surnames were titles given to the surname, indicating social and political status. They were similar to titles and hereditary. Each surname had a clear hierarchy, such as Chen, Lian, Jun, Zhi, etc. In the 9th and 10th centuries, the Miao character also appeared.

Fujiwara was the surname, Kujo was the Miao character, and Kaneshi was the given name. Later, the surname, surname, and Miao characters gradually merged into the modern surname.
The emperor and his family were special. In history, emperors did not have surnames, only names, because they were considered descendants of gods and had supreme power. The empress and her children also did not have surnames. After the daughter married, she could take her husband's surname.
Before the Meiji Restoration, commoners had no surnames. After the Meiji Restoration, there were conscription, taxation, household registration, etc. In 1870, Emperor Meiji issued the "Decree on the Allow of the Miao Character of the Commoners", but there were few responses. In 1875, he issued the "Decree on the Must Call the Miao Character of the Commoners" to force the citizens to have surnames, and the commoners began to take surnames. The commoners were not highly educated. Most of them took their surnames from the place names near their homes (such as the pine tree called Matsushita, the mountain near their homes called Shankou, the river near their homes called Watanabe, etc.), the meaning (such as longevity, millennium, Asahi, pine and bamboo, etc.), religious beliefs (believing in Bodhisattva, believing in Buddha's surname Sakyamuni, etc.), and even casually fabricated surnames (such as pig's nose, pig's feet, ox's tail, ox's intestines, etc.).
