It's a Japanese suffix used after a person's name or nickname to indicate intermediate intimacy as opposed to the greater intimacy suffix of chan. It's more like a peer rather than a close family member. Disclaimer: I don't know shitall about Japanese, I just happened across something explaining this a few days ago and the above is how I remember what I read about it.
