Japanese Fuedal clans were Kinship clans. Meaning it was bound bloodline or perceived bloodline meaning no one outside of the bloodline could have the clan name. if a women married a man in a clan she didn't take his clan name. she might take his individual surname but not the name of his clan.

Japanese clans like Irish, Scottish etc are kinship clans which means its limited by blood. anyone outside the blood of the clan can not take the clan name
