About
The character 郭, structured with the component 享 and the radical 阝 denoting a place, etymologically referred to a city's outer wall. This concept broadened to include the outer city itself, and subsequently, the character's usage shifted toward becoming a common surname, though its initial meaning persists in compounds such as 城郭.
