Names are meaningful. They identify you in a way that people can easily grasp. Understanding what names mean, their origin, and what they signify is a diversion for most and an obsession for others. There is much to discover about the origin of our names. Some would prefer learning more about Indian or ancient Roman based names. Although, one of my favorite kinds are Japanese last names. They hold a lot of significance for the Japanese people. Understanding more about their origin and background can help you understand their culture and history that much better. Let me share with you some details about these last names.


All together, there are around 300,000 last names carried in the country of Japan. Some of the most known and typical Japanese last names are Sato, Takahashi, and Kobayashi. About half a million Japanese citizens use the name of Sato. Somewhat less use Takahashi. Kobayashi is used by about 241,000 people. You may have heard of several others, most especially if you use Japanese made gadgets or automobiles. They have certainly put their brand out into the world and made quite a few of their names household terms that almost everyone has used.


There is one important difference between Japanese last names and the naming structure in play by most other cultures. Typically, English speaking people put their given name in front and their family name second. This is reversed for the Japanese. For example, instead of being John Smith it would be Smith John or Hashimoto John. Other Asian countries function in a similar way. This may seem a bit peculiar at first, but I would imagine that they think the same thing about others. For them it is perfectly typical. It is also important to note that Japanese do not usually have middle names. The Japanese royal family operates a bit differently in this department as well. They usually carry predetermined names as is the custom.


The tradition of a last name is important in Japanese culture. It can help or hinder depending on where you live and who you interact with. In this manner, it is not dissimilar from western culture, but you may discover that Japanese culture takes it a bit further. This can influence one's ability to get work, be in good standing with the local community, or even impress a significant other's family. It is far more intricate than what most people are used to. This does not mean a person cannot overcome adversity simply because of their name. They are not chained into other's judgement for the rest of their lives. That may have been true in the past, but it is not the case currently.


Researching names is an enjoyable hobby for some and a career for others. Whichever it is you subscribe to, learning more about Japanese last names should be part of your study plan. Their culture is highly influential and their reach covers the world. It is not such a terrible idea to learn more about them and their names. It can help you understand them better.
