See きしめん on Wiktionary

Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [kʲiɕimẽ̞ɴ] Forms: kishimen [romanization]
Etymology: Likely a borrowing from early Mandarin 碁子麵/碁子面 (qízi miàn) or Cantonese 碁子麵/碁子面 (kei⁴ zi² min⁶), or possibly from late Middle Chinese 碁子麵 (*ghiə *tziə̌ *mien?, literally “go-stone dough”), imported by Japanese Zen monks who had traveled to China to study. Mentioned in the 貞丈雑記 (Teijō Zakki), a work of historical research written by 伊勢貞丈 (Ise Sadatake) during the years 1763-1784. These were apparently called go-stone dough from the way the dough is punched into shapes resembling the stones used to play 碁 (go, “the game of go”).

Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [kʲiɕimẽ̞ɴ] Forms: kishimen [romanization]
Etymology: Unknown. The more likely theories include the following: * This style of flat udon noodle was developed in the 紀州 (Kishū) region, leading to one theory that Kishū men (“Kishū noodles”) contracted over time into kishimen. * This style of noodle was also sometimes served topped with ground 雉 (kiji, “pheasant”), leading to another theory that kishimen might have been a dialectal or corrupted variant of kiji men (“pheasant noodles”). * Lastly, this term might have developed from the kishimen dumpling, by not punching out the dumpling shapes and simply cutting the flat strip of dough into noodles instead.
