Meaning & History

This name can be used on its own as 梢 (shou, kusunoki, kozue) meaning "treetop, twig," derived from a combination of 木 (ko), the combining form of ki meaning "tree," and and 末 (sue) meaning "tip, top."

It can also be combined with 恵 (e, kei, megu.mu) meaning "blessing, favour, grace, kindness," 絵 (e, kai) meaning "drawing, painting, picture, sketch," 江 (kou, e) meaning "bay, inlet" and 枝 (shi, eda, e) meaning "bough, branch, twig."
Alternatively, 梢 can be replaced with the phonetic characters that read kozu.

Kozue is also used as a surname.
