"海老" meaning in Japanese

See 海老 in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: [e̞bʲi] Forms: 海老 [canonical] (ruby: 海老(えび)), Ebi [romanization]
Etymology: /jepi/ → /jebi/ → /ebi/ Possibly from Old Japanese, first attested in the Honzō Wamyō (918 CE). Ultimate derivation unclear, with theories including: * Shift in meaning from ebi, ancient reading of modern 葡萄 (budō, “grape”), from a resemblance in color * Shift in reading from epige, proposed compound of 良い (ei, “good”) + 髭 (pige → hige, “beard”) from the bearded appearance * Shift in reading from epige, proposed compound of 江 (e, “inlet, bay”) + 髭 (pige → hige, “beard”) from the bearded appearance Appears as Yebi in the Nippo Jisho of 1603. The kanji spelling is jukujikun (熟字訓), in reference to the vague resemblance to a stooped old man. See the kairō reading below.
