What is the meaning of the name Mitsuhisa ?

Mitsuhisa is Japanese in Origin.

Mitsuhisa is a Japanese masculine given name whose sense depends on the kanji chosen. Common writings include 光久 (“radiant” + “long-lasting”), 充久 (“abundant” + “enduring”), 満久 (“fullness” + “longevity”), 貢久 (“contribute/offer” + “long time”), and 三久 (“three” + “long time”). The -hisa (久, 寿, 尚, 恒) element traditionally conveys durability, longevity, or constancy, while mitsu (光, 充, 満, 三, 貢) adds shades of brightness, abundance, completeness, number, or service.

The name appeared in warrior and courtly lineages from the medieval to Edo periods and is found among several daimyō recorded as 光久 (Mitsuhisa). It remained in modest use through the Meiji–Shōwa era and is now relatively rare, giving it a vintage, dignified tone. Variants and short forms include Mitsu and Hisa; it may be written in kana (みつひさ/ミツヒサ). Romanization is usually Mitsuhisa in Hepburn, with Mituhisa in Kunrei/Nihon-shiki.

Mitsuhisa is rarely chosen. We have only 12 recorded uses of it on record, from 2 countries.
