How about you try Google first. For example, it took me one try to get search results where the first site found answers the question for "Abe": japanese surname meaning abe - Google Search
Beyond that, Wikipedia is helpful too http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abe_(surname) I'm not sure how many you've listed, but it looks to be well over 200. Many, many of them have multiple meanings. It's kind of unreasonable to expect someone to actually answer this question. For example, Takahashi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia There's the Wikipedia entry for Takahashi, which mentions ten different ways of writing it, which means ten different meanings. It also mentions the most popular one as meaning "high bridge." So that link, for example, shows how much work would actually be involved in answering your question (bordering on impossibility, actually), and it also shows how you could find much of the answer yourself quite easily. Of course, someone here might actually want to jump in and help you. I'm just giving you what I consider to be the reasonable expectation that you're not going to get help in answering much of the question. |
by help you mean do them all for you right?
Uh, good luck with that. :ywave: |
Almost all of those names could be written a variety of ways, so it is an impossible request without seeing the actual Japanese characters.
