The Queen Mother is the Queen Mother of the West in ancient Chinese mythology. It is said that her surname is Yang and her given name is Hui. However, later generations of uneducated people named her Yao Qiong (Yao Qiong), which is the name in the Book of Songs "Papaya". That one means beautiful jade
Furthermore, some ancient books record that the Queen Mother's surname is Feng, and some also agree with Yang Hui's name, but use an extra character, called Wanjin.
In the legends of later generations, in addition to the title of Queen Mother, the Queen Mother of the West also has the names of Golden Mother, Yaochi Golden Mother, and Yaochi Holy Mother. In addition, the Queen Mother of the West in the Classic of Mountains and Seas says that she looks like a human, but has a leopard tail and tiger teeth, is good at roaring, has shaggy hair, is in charge of the five gods that bring disasters in the world, and relies on three blue birds to find food.
However, it is said in the biography of Emperor Mu and the internal biography of Emperor X of the Han Dynasty that the Queen Mother of the West was a tactful, gentle and kind goddess. Comparatively speaking, this statement is more credible.
