Beat (pronounced "BEH-awe-t", not like the English "beat") is a German male given name derived from the Latin ''beatus'' ("blessed") used as a name in Christianity. The Spanish/Italian version is ''Beatoma''. The name is common in the German-speaking territories of Switzerland but, unlike the female version Beate, obscure in the other German-speaking countries. The name owes its popularity in Switzerland to the semi-legendary Saint Beatus of Lungern (of Beatenberg/of Thun), who is considered the national apostle of the Swiss. * Beat Breu, Swiss racing cyclist * Beat Bosch, Swiss paralympic athlete * Beat Fehr, Swiss racing driver * Beat Feuz, Swiss alpine skier * Beat Gähwiler, Swiss decathlete * Beat Hefti, Swiss bobsledder * Beat Raaflaub, Swiss conductor * Beat Streuli, Swiss artist/photographer * Beat von Stein, German filmmaker, director * Beat Wipf, Swiss artist * Beat Zberg, Swiss racing cyclist Japanese director Takeshi Kitano's stage name Beat Kitano is completely unrelated to the above; instead, it derives from "The Two Beats", a comedy duo Kitano had formed in the 1960s, when Beat music was popular. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beat (name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
