Later, the wooden character was omitted, so he became Cha's surname.

2. It comes from the surname Mi and takes the city name as the surname. In the Spring and Autumn Period, a public doctor of the State of Chu was sealed in Chayi, and his descendants took Chayi as their surname.

3. It comes from the name of the fief. During the Spring and Autumn Period, some governors of Chu were enfeoffed in the state of Xi (now Nanzhang, Hubei Province). Because the name of his fief is also written as Cha, he is also considered as the Lord of Cha. Later, his descendants also took the name of the fief as their surname, and called it Cha surname.
