What 𣋈 means
It is probably a variant of 嘗 used in names. Taiwan’s household-registration character set records it for uncommon personal-name spellings.
Forms of 嘗 appear in Western Zhou bronze inscriptions. The Han-era dictionary Shuowen Jiezi glosses 嘗 as “to taste”; other uses include “try,” “experience,” “ever,” and an autumn rite for offering the new grain. These meanings do not define what a particular person intended by 𣋈 in a name.
