Khan
汗 is the title Khan, meaning a medieval ruler of a Tatary tribe.
Oddly, besides being a name or title, this can also mean perspiration, sweat, moisture, or condensation in Japanese and Chinese.
The most famous would be Genghis Khan, followed by his son Ögedei Khan, and grandson Khubilai Khan.
Khan
カーン is the name Khan in Japanese (Katakana).
Note: Because this title is entirely Japanese Katakana, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.
Genghis Khan
成吉思汗 is the full title for Genghis Khan (1162-1227).
Khan is the title of his position as emperor. Genghis is his name.
In Japan, this also means Genghis Khan but is sometimes used to refer to a specific Japanese mutton and vegetable dish or the slotted dome cast iron grill for preparing this dish.
