After Sun Wukong became a disciple of Patriarch Bodhi, Patriarch Bodhi named him Sun Wukong.
The ancestor took the surname ‘Hong’ from the Monkey King. The word "猢" went to the side of a beast, but it turned out to be an ancient moon. Ancient means old, and moon means yin. Lao Yin cannot transform and educate, so he is given the surname "狲". The word "狲" is next to the animal, which is the sub-lineage. The son is male, and the tie is Yingxi. It is in line with the basic theory of infants, and the surname is 'Sun'.
There are twelve characters in the sect of the Patriarch, who are assigned names. The Monkey King is the tenth generation disciple. Those twelve characters are the twelve characters of "the vast wisdom, true nature, ocean, enlightenment and perfect enlightenment". Arriving at the Monkey King, it is time to realize the word "enlightenment". The Patriarch gave the Monkey King a Dharma name, "Sun Wukong".
