The Chinese character 乔 (qiáo) — meaning, origin, and why names use it
Tall, lofted.
What the character itself says
Tall, lofted. The original graph has a person rising high and being thrown, so the first meaning was to lift away. It became the commonest Chinese surname written with a different radical (喬 for the height, 橋 for the bridge over the height) and carries high-ness in both.
