place name
嵋 is a rare kanji used primarily in place names, with no clear standalone meaning beyond that context. Treat its meaning as uncertain.
嵋 combines 山 (mountain) with 眉, which likely contributes a phonetic element. The exact historical development is uncertain, but it is associated with a specific mountain name.
The left side is a mountain 山, and the right side looks like an eyebrow 眉. Picture a mountain whose ridge resembles an eyebrow, giving it a distinctive name.
For ビ, imagine a bee buzzing around the eyebrow-shaped mountain ridge: bee -> ビ, and the mountain is named after the bee's visit.
