The kanji 傑傑 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字). The left side is the radical 亻 (ninben, meaning "person" or "human"). The right side is 桀 (ketsu), which serves as the phonetic component, indicating the sound (though its original meaning is quite different – "cruel" or "tyrannical"). The combination of the "person" radical and the phonetic component suggests a person who is outstanding or superior. The original meaning of 桀 had a connection to strength and power, hence it evolved to reflect extraordinary achievement.
