As far as I know, there are not many Han surnames that originated from the ancient Central Plains, only about a hundred and several. At that time, people in the Central Plains generally took their clan as their surname, their job as their surname, their country as their surname, or their father's official position as their surname. For example, Luban's name can be interpreted as "the craftsman of the Lu State"! The name of Pao Ding can be interpreted as "the man who cooks".
By the end of the Han Dynasty, a large number of Hu people moved into the Central Plains. Until the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the ethnic minorities who moved into the interior accounted for almost 20% of the population of the Central Plains. A large number of people with the surname Hu began to appear. , which ones are still in use today?
The Northern Wei Dynasty - the first ethnic minority regime in the Central Plains to unify the north. A large number of Xianbei people began to use single-syllable "Han surnames" after Emperor Xiaowen's restructuring, but there are still Some of the Hu surnames have been retained, such as "Yuwen", "Changsun", "Linghu", "Dugu", "Murong", "Yuchi", "Lu", "Mu" and so on.
