Meaning & History
This name is used as 主水 with 主 (shu, shuu, su, aruji, omo, neshi, mon) meaning "chief, lord, master, principal" and 水 (sui, mizu, do) meaning "water."It is classified as a hyakkanna (百官名), a court rank-style name that samurai used to announce oneself and give himself authority, since it comes from the name of a ministry of the Imperial Household under the Ritsuryō system (主水司/Shusuishi or Moitori no tsukasa).One fictional bearer of this name is Mondo Nakamura (中村 主水), one of the main characters in the Hissatsu (必殺) jidaigeki TV series.
