Trivia

Origin

Chi-Yu may be modelled after members of the Cyprinidae family, especially the goldfish. The beads around its eyes make it particularly similar to the telescope eye and celestial eye breeds. The curved beads by its eyes are based on the magatama, comma-shaped beads made of jade that served as ceremonial and religious objects.

Name origin

Chi-Yu may be a combination of 鯽魚 / 鲫魚 jìyú (Chinese for goldfish) and 玉 yù (Chinese for jade).

Īyui may be a combination of 玉 yù (Chinese for jade) and 魚 / 鱼 yú (Chinese for fish).
