Matsumoto Vad efternamn betyder
Japanese: written 松本 ‘place of the (divine) pine tree’. It is from a common placename throughout Japan and the Ryūkyū Islands; many bearers therefore may be unrelated. According to folklore this would be the name of a habitation near a pine tree (matsu) from which a deity would issue to visit mortals. See also Matsuda and Matsuoka.
