Etymology

First attested in the Wamyō Ruijushō (938 CE).

Shift from Old Japanese 蓬𦸽 (ichibiko), attested earlier in the Nihon Shoki (720 CE) and the Shinsen Jikyō (c. 900 CE); itself a compound of 斎 (i-, prefix expressing sacredness) + 血 (chi, “blood”) + 彦 (hiko, “boy; prince”). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)
