▲ Origin of surnames

Guǎn (gu m ? n) There are three origins of surnames:

1. After Ji's surname was Zhou Wenwang, the country name was taken as the surname. According to A Brief History of the Clan, The Origin of China's Surname and Guang Yun, Zhou Wuwang established the Zhou Dynasty after the destruction of the Shang Dynasty, and named his third brother Uncle Xian, who was known as Guan Shu in charge (now Zhengzhou City, Henan Province), and established the governing state, allowing him to manage the adherents of the Shang Dynasty together with Cai Shudu. After the death of King Wu, the young King ascended the throne. Because he was too young, Zhou Gongdan presided over the state affairs. Guan Shu and Cai Shu thought that Zhou Gongdan's rule was not conducive to the Zhou Dynasty, so they joined forces with Wu Geng to launch a rebellion, which was quickly quelled by Zhou Gongdan. Guan Shu was killed, and after Guan Shu's death, his descendants used his former fief name "Guan" as their surname, calling it Guan.

2. The surname is Ji, and after Zhou Muwang, the city is taken as the surname. According to "A Brief History of the Clan" and "A Brief Introduction to Customs", when Zhou Muwang was in charge, his illegitimate son was enfeoffed in Guanyi, and it was not until Guanzhong that he appeared in Qi, and then his grandson took the city as his surname. After Zhou Muwang, Guan Zhong was a famous politician in the Spring and Autumn Period. Later, he became a prime minister in Qi State, helping Qi Huangong to govern the country. The descendants of Guan Zhong are also named Guan, which is called Guan's.

3. Change one's surname from another nationality. The Xibe nationality is Guaerjia, and the Han surname is Guan.

▲ First ancestor of surname: Guan Zhong. The name is Yi Wu, and the pawn is respected, and it is also named Jingzhong. Yingshang (now Anhui Province) was a famous politician of Qi in the Spring and Autumn Period, after Zhou Muwang. Guan Zhongyuan assisted Gong Zijiu and killed Xiao Bai with an arrow. Xiao Bai escaped by playing dead, and Xiao Bai returned to China to become the throne, namely Qi Huangong. He let bygones be bygones, reused Guan Zhong as a relative, and Guan Zhong was grateful and helped Qi Huangong to carry out the reform. He accumulated wealth through currency, respected the king and conquered foreigners, and conquered the world, making Qi Huangong the first of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period. Guan Shu was killed because of the rebellion, and his reputation was ruined, while Guan Zhong was famous, having both ability and political integrity, which made the surname of Guan Shu, the ruler of Mu Wang, famous all over the world. Therefore, the descendants of Guan Xing respected Guan Zhong as the ancestor of Guan Xing.

▲ Migration distribution

From the above, it can be seen that there are two main sources of Guan surname, either after Wen Wang or Mu Wang, both of which are from Ji surname and have the same blood relationship. Among the many vassal states in the Western Zhou Dynasty, Guan Guo was founded early and died early. Guan Shu was rarely punished, but his descendants vanished and went to live in different places. At that time, Qilu was rich, most of them moved to Shandong, and some migrated south to Anhui, northern Jiangsu and eastern Henan. In the Spring and Autumn Period, in addition to Guan Zhong, there were also contemporary Guan Zhi's father, who were also Qi people. It can be seen that Guan surname is still mainly propagated in Shandong. In the Western Han Dynasty, the Guan surname Guan Furen, the high-impedance princess, Guan Gan, Hou Lingjun and Shao Qing were found in the history books, and Guan Wangping Plain should be formed during the Qin and Han Dynasties. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Guan Hai, the leader of the peasant army, was also a Qi man. He was often in charge of the tyrants, and Dunqiu (now Qingfeng, Henan Province) was in charge of Bo. It can be seen that Guan's surname has been registered in Henan. In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Guan Si, a former military affairs officer of Shandong Vice Capital, moved to Yanggangba (now Shuiqian Zhang Fang Village, Ninghua) in Zhaoxianli, Ningyang, Fujian. During the Three Kingdoms period, Guan Ning, a native of Zhuxu, Beihai County (now Linqu, Shandong Province), lived in Liaodong for more than 31 years, and his descendants stayed there. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, due to social unrest, some Guan surnames went to Qinlong in the west and Xiaoxiang in the south. According to Guan's Genealogy, "Qilu has descendants of Guan Zhong, Qin Long has descendants of Guan Chun, Huxiang has descendants of Guan Xiu, and Liaodong has descendants of Guan Ning." In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Guan Xing also lived in the south of the Yangtze River, and Guan Chong, the leader of the peasant uprising army at the end of Sui Dynasty, was a native of Jinling County (now Changzhou, Jiangsu Province). During the Tang and Song Dynasties, Guan surname flourished in Jiangnan. During the late Tang Dynasty of the Five Dynasties, Guan Si hid his descendant Zhenlang and returned to live in the source of Jiangxi. Later, his descendants spread to Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi. In the Song Dynasty, the poet took charge of Jian, followed his father as an official, and moved from Longquan to Linchuan (now Jiangxi Province). In the Yuan Dynasty, Hanlin was in charge of Wei Kaiji Guangshan, Henan Province. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, a branch of Guangshan moved to Xincai. At the same time, Guan's surname, as one of the surnames of the inhabitants of Sophora japonica in Hongdong, Shanxi Province in the Ming Dynasty, was moved to Henan, Hebei, Shandong, Shaanxi, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Anhui and other places. According to the Records of the Inscriptions of Scholars in Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were 55 scholars with Guan surname and 35 people from Jiangsu, Jiangxi and Zhejiang during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Excluding their unique cultural atmosphere, it shows that Guan surname is widely distributed in these three places, and there are two in Hubei and one in Yunnan in the south. In the north, Juzhou (five) and Gaomi (two) in Shandong, and Xianning (two) in Shaanxi are the majority. This shows the distribution of Guan surname in this period. At this time, there are people who have crossed the sea to Taiwan and lived overseas. In addition, the name of Shandong Zhiguan is to make a living in Guandong. Today, Guan surname is widely distributed in China, especially in Jiangsu, Shandong and other provinces, which account for about 63% of the total population of Han nationality. Guan surname is the 141th surname in China, with a large population, accounting for about 1.19% of the Han population in China.
