The Origin of Surnames in China There are two branches of surnames in China, but there is actually only one source. One is a surname from Yu Xia, and the other is a surname from Tang Yin. The ancestors of Si surname and Zi surname are of the same ancestry, that is, Zhuan Xu Di Levin's family more than 4,400 years ago. The child surname was established by Zhuan Xu's son Qi. The surname of Si was established by the descendants of Zhuan Xu's grandson Yu Xia. It can be seen that people with China surnames are all descendants of Zhuan Xu, and the so-called two are just different in the order and way of taking surnames. According to the above analysis, the ancestors of Han people can be traced back to Xuanyuan of Huangdi, because Zhuan Xu is the grandson of Huangdi. The Han surname, which originated from Si surname, appeared as early as the fourth son of Xia Dynasty, Zhong Kang. At that time, the distance is now about 4 100 years. "Examination of Surnames" records: "Xia Feng was named Fahrenheit in Xiyue". Xiyue refers to Huashan Mountain in Shaanxi, so the descendants of Zhong Kang took "Hua" as their surname from now on. But at that time, some people doubted whether Huashan had the title of Xiyue, so they thought that Fahrenheit was the first and Huashan was the last. No matter who is in the front and who is behind, it is undeniable that Hua surname has a certain relationship with Huashan. A China surname, which is derived from the sub-surname, has specific information to test. The Record of Words and Actions of Famous People records: "The son of the Duke of Song Dynasty received food from China because of his family, and Huadu, Huayuan, Huading and Huahai were Song Qing." It can be seen that this China family is named after the place. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Song was a prominent family, and many people in the family were ministers of the State of Song. It is indisputable that China's surname originated from Song State. However, there are different opinions on who started Huawei. Dialectics of Surnames in Ancient and Modern Times holds that Hua Du, the son of Zheng Kao's father, is the first surname of Huawei. It is recorded in the book that the Han surname "comes from the son surname, the grandson of the public in the Song Dynasty, and the word Han father, Song Xianggong, is self-reliant." Song State was named Wei Ziguo (a descendant of Shang and Zhou Dynasties) as a sacrifice to the Tang Dynasty. Is the son's surname, father and are descendants of Tang, so the surname of China people naturally comes from the son's surname. At that time, the State of Song roughly owned a place east of Shangqiu County in Henan Province and west of Tongshan County in Jiangsu Province. Therefore, the earliest origin of people with China surnames should be here, and then gradually spread to other places. In addition, in the Qing Dynasty, Prince Yu of Aixinjue Roche was later renamed Hua.
