About
The character "琪" is constructed from the semantic component 玉, meaning jade, combined with the phonetic component 其, which primarily suggests its pronunciation. This structure clearly indicates its original and enduring meaning as a type of precious jade or a fine jade-like stone. Over time, while its core definition has remained constant within classical texts and dictionaries, its application shifted predominantly into the realm of personal names, where it carries connotations of beauty, rarity, and preciousness, much like the material it denotes. The character has maintained this stable form and semantic focus throughout its documented history, without a simplified variant being created for it.
