Yoshihisa is Japanese in Origin.
Yoshihisa is a Japanese masculine given name formed from yoshi (義, 良, 佳, 善, 吉, 喜, 芳: righteous, good, excellent, virtuous, auspicious, joyful) plus hisa (久 "long time; lasting", 尚 "esteemed", 寿 "longevity"). Common kanji include 義久, 良久, 吉久, 善久, 佳久, 喜久, and 義尚, yielding senses such as "righteous and enduring" or "auspicious longevity." It may also be written in kana as よしひさ or ヨシヒサ.
Attested since medieval Japan among warrior and court circles, the name appears in records of the Sengoku era, most notably the daimyo Shimazu Yoshihisa (1533–1611). In modern times it remains familiar though less common than in the mid-20th century; bearers include composers Yoshihisa Hirano and Yoshihisa Taira. Short forms include Yoshi and Hisa. Related names are Yoshihiko, Yoshihiro, Kazuhisa, and Takahisa. Standard romanization is Yoshihisa (Hepburn); older systems may show Yosihisa.
