Answer:


Depends "for what".

Suffixes For names:

1) -San for for both males and females for respect e.g. John-San or Nicloe-San.
2) -Sama: Very polite. Used for written communication in bussiness or for God or for customers.
3) -Kun : For male kids and for male young subordinates
4) -chan: for female kids

Some of the prefixes:
O or go for politeness like Sushi becomes O-sushi or Mizu (water) becomes o-mizu.

Well, the list will go on but then it depends on the pursose to filter out the relevant ones.
