Where did the Mongolian people’s one-character surnames come from?

(1) Mongolian surnames?

There are generally four types of Mongolian surnames:?

1. The surname is the name of the tribe. "Secret History of Mongolia" records that the eleventh generation of Genghis Khan, Duancha, captured a female captive named "Zhaerchiwuti Adanghan Wuliang Hezhen". Wuliang is the name of the tribe, Adanghan is his real name, and Zharchiwuti is the name of the clan. Therefore, the female prisoner's surname was Wulianghezhen (which means female, if she is a male, she is called Wulianghehe), her name was Adanghan, and she was a member of the Jharchiwuti clan. The order of naming is: surname, given name, clan. The banners of Zasak and Taiji in the eastern region of Karaqin are all surnamed Wu. It is Hetong, the seventh grandson of Lemei (one of the four heroes of Genghis Khan) from Wulianghe (also known as Wulianghai) who founded the Karaqin reason. This is to take the beginning of the name of the department as the surname.

In the record about Genghis Khan on the first page of the first volume of "Yuan History", the surname is also directly recorded as: "Temujin, surnamed Qiwowen." Qiwowen is also recorded as "Begging "Yan" is also the name of the tribe to which Genghis Khan belonged. The strange surnames in today's Ordos all come from this. When Rashid's "Historical Collection" describes the Tatar tribe, he says: "Anyone from this tribe, if they are a man, are called Tutu Heiligui, and if they are a woman, they are called Tutu Heilizhen."?

2. Use the name of this clan as the surname. The Zasak and Taiji surnames of the Horqin, Gorros, Duerbot, and Zhalaite tribes built by the descendants of Hesar (the second brother of Genghis Khan) all had the surname Bao, which originated from the birthplace of Hesar. Erzhijin (also recorded as the Borzijit clan. This is the reason why the clan name starts with the surname; Dongtumote originally lived in Zhuosuotu League, Eastern District). This is also the reason for Bao's family name. , caused by Baoxielan. ?

3. Use the ancestor’s name as the surname. In ancient times, for example, Tuotuo, the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty and majoring in the three histories of Song, Liao and Jin Dynasties, was originally a surname of Mierjini. Later generations took Tuotuo as their surname. In the Yuan Dynasty, there was Tuotuo Ni, and in the Ming Dynasty, there was Tuotuo Buhua. Modern people use the names of their ancestors as their surnames. For example, the national hero Zaida Meilin, who was born in the Horqin Left Wing Middle Banner, began to take the character "Mo" as his surname after his ancestor Mollettu, and the homophonic pronunciation was recorded as Meng, so Ga. Damelin's Chinese name is Meng Qingshan. Another example is that the distant ancestor of Fugerit, the charge d'affaires of the prince of the former banner of Guoerluosi in Beijing, was a native of Wulianghe. His original surnames were Wu and Wu, but the descendants of Fugerit have taken "Fu" as their surname. There are also many Mongolians in the eastern region who change their surnames. ?

4. The surname is not based on the tribe or clan, nor is it based on the father’s name, but a special name in history. For example, when the ancient Mongols went on an expedition, the family members and baggage left behind were called "Olu", so these family members took the surname "Olu", and their descendants changed their surname to "Olu". During the Yuan Dynasty, all those who surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty and were incorporated into the Mongolian army had the word Mongolian added to their surnames, so later generations had "Meng" as their surname. In addition, Mongolians were often given surnames during the Ming Dynasty. Ruhuoyou was attached in the ninth year of Hongwu (1376), and his name was changed to Huozhuang. Guanyin Bao, in the 16th year of his reign (1383), was named Li Guan. Chou Donkey was named Li Xian in the 21st year of his reign (1388). ?

5. Use Han surnames as surnames. This mainly refers to the free translation of Mongolian surnames into Chinese surnames. For example, Xirat means yellow in Mongolian, and is translated into the surname Huang; Chagan means white in Mongolian, and is translated into the surname Bai; Huhe means blue, and is translated into the surname blue; Alatan means gold, and is translated into the surname Jin, etc. . There are also surnames with homophonic pronunciation and similar Chinese characters as surnames. For example, if his father's name is Boyan, the son's surname will be Bai with the homophony of the first character of "Boyan"; another example is Huo Ni Chi, whose surname begins with "火". The homophonic pronunciation is Huo, etc., or the Chinese surname can be used directly.

The origin of the Han surnames of the ancient people

Historically, with the integration of ethnic groups and the mutual penetration of cultures, Mongolians began to have Tibetan names and Han names, and some Mongolians switched to using single surnames with Chinese characters. , especially in areas close to the Han people, this phenomenon is more common.

The Mongolian people are one of the few inter-provincial ethnic groups in China. Among them, the Mongolian people living in Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Yunnan, Sichuan and other places now generally use Han surnames. The Mongolian people living in the eastern part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region The clan members also have single surnames in Chinese characters.

Historically, there were many reasons why the Mongolian people changed to use Han surnames, and the circumstances varied. One of them was "giving a surname to a surname".

For example, in the late Yuan Dynasty, a Mongolian general named Boyan Timur fought bravely and led his troops to defeat peasant uprisings many times. However, he was defeated once and returned to the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty admired his martial prowess and gave him the surname "Zhang". His descendants have been serving in the army, and it has been passed down to Zhang Sheng, his great-great-grandson, who was promoted to the governor of the capital.

For another example, in the late Yuan Dynasty, some Mongolian nobles changed their surnames to avoid disaster while fleeing.

Another origin of the Mongolian people’s Han surnames is the literal translation of the Mongolian multi-syllable surnames into Chinese surnames. For example: "Sirat" in Mongolian means yellow, translated as "Huang" surname; "Chagan" means white, translated as "White" surname; "Alatan" means gold, translated as "Gold" surname, etc. . Some people use homophonic Chinese characters as their surnames. For example, if the father's name is Buren, then the first character "Bu" of "Buren" is used as the surname; if the father's name is "Hude", then the homophonic "Bu" of the first character "Hude" is used as the surname. "Hu" is the surname, etc. Some Mongolians directly use Han surnames.
