Meaning & History

This name combines 千 (sen, chi) meaning "thousand" and 代 (tai, dai, ka.eru, ka.waru, kawa.ru, -gawa.ri, -ga.wari, shiro, yo) meaning "age, change, charge, convert, fee, generation, period, rate, replace, substitute" with 恵 (e, kei, megu.mi, megu.mu) meaning "blessing, favour, grace, kindness", 枝 (shi, eda, e) meaning "bough, branch, twig, limb", 江 (kou, e) meaning "bay, creek, inlet" or 栄 (ei, you, e, saka.eru, ha.e, ha.eru, -ba.e) meaning "flourish, glory, honour, prosperity, splendour."

This name was most commonly used from the Meiji Period (1868-1912) to the first half of the 20th century but nowadays, it's rarely given to girls, if given at all.
