Meaning and background
The story behind Kusshi
Kusshi has a documented oyster association. The producer describes its cultivation in Baynes Sound, British Columbia, including growing oysters in baskets and selecting for a deep cup and smooth shell. A food-loving household may choose the word for a dog's name through that particular product reference. The source supports the oyster brand and farming story, rather than an unverified personal-name translation borrowed from a similar-sounding word.
