The source of Ji surname:

China people are very particular about their surnames. Last name and last name are two completely different words at first. At that time, surnames were women's patents; Men don't have surnames, only surnames.

As early as in matriarchal society, people had surnames. The ancients created words, and the word "surname" consists of two words: "female" and "born", that is, the surname is born to a woman. "Shi" appeared later than "surname" and did not appear until the patriarchal society.

The difference between surnames is that surnames are used to indicate the level of status, and surnames are used to distinguish marriage and judge whether to get married.

Because there was no special genealogy before, after the Qin Dynasty, after several major social unrest, surnames were confused. The most fundamental change is that men begin to take their surnames. The confusion of surname system directly leads to the confusion of clan.

The sources of Han surnames mainly include the following:

The first type: taking natural objects worshipped by different clans or tribes as surnames. Such as bears, cows, clouds, ponds, willows, etc. Originally named after natural objects worshipped by different clans or tribes.

The second type: take the place name or place as the surname. Such as Lu, Han and Song. Take the place name as the surname; Dongmen, Ximen, Dongguo, Nanguo and Xiguo take the place of residence as their surnames. There are more than 200 surnames with place names or places, most of which are small countries in ancient China. Ji Xiaolan's "Ji" takes place names as surnames.

The third type: Take the occupation, status, posthumous title or name of the ancestor as the surname. This includes the following four categories-

1. Take ancestors' occupations as surnames: If Wu surname is a diviner, Wu surname is ancestors' occupations, and there are Shangguan, Sima, Situ, etc. Take the official position as the surname. Among the most common surnames in the west, "Smith" is a craftsman, "George" is a farmer and "Henry" is a ruler. In Japan, there is a man named "keeping a dog". He keeps a dog.

2. Take ancestors as surnames: such as Sun, Wang Sun, etc. Their ancestors should be men or kings.

3. Take ancestors posthumous title as surnames, such as Mu, Zhuang and Wu.

4. Taking the ancestors' names as surnames: This phenomenon is rare among the Han people now, but it is very common in ancient times, especially in the predecessor of the Chinese Han people in the pre-Qin period. Later, ethnic minorities around the Han nationality also inherited this tradition, such as Nanzhao wang xing in the Tang Dynasty. The first king of Nanzhao was named St. Lopi, and the son of St. Lopi was named Pirog, the son of Pirog was named Geluofeng, the son of Pirog was named Yi Mouxun, and the son of Pirog was named Xun Gequan, who advised his son and so on. This surname is actually a way for people to remember their ancestors without words.

Fourth: Borrow the surnames of ethnic minorities, such as Yuwen, Huyan, Murong and Weichi. Surnames such as Kang, An, Shi, He and Shi were also from the Western Regions (now Xinjiang) in the Tang Dynasty.

The fifth type: changing the surname. The situation of changing surnames is more complicated, including the following three categories-

1. Changing the surname due to the migration of residence: The most typical example is that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Tian of Qi moved abroad, and the second surname was changed to "first" and "second" ... Now there are also "fifth" surnames among Han people.

2. Avoid enmity or change the surname: For example, after Han Xin was killed, his descendants split the Korean characters and named them Wei and Zhuo respectively; After Sima Qian's accident, his descendants enfeoffed Sima, surnamed Tong, surnamed Feng. After finding out, his descendants changed their surnames. In addition, because of avoiding the name of the emperor of the dynasty, it is called "avoiding surnames".

3. The surname changed by the emperor, that is, the given surname: When he went to Korea for the second time, a man named Yang took the opportunity to make trouble. Emperor Yang Di said you can't be surnamed Yang, so you cut off your head. Your surname is Xiao. What is the original meaning of the word Xiao? It is said that owls are unfilial. When the owl is old, the little owl pecks the old owl. Finally, the old owl was pecked blind and could not run. Finally, it was eaten and its head was left behind. So if you kill someone and then hang your head, it's called "Xiao"

Ji Xiaolan's "Ji" belongs to the place name. How did this place name come from?

According to historical records, after the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, bearing in mind the achievements of the sages and kings, a descendant of Emperor Yan Shennong was named Ji (in the southeast of Shouguang County, Shandong Province), thus establishing the State of Ji. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Ji was destroyed by the State of Qi, and the descendants of the King of Qi took the country as their surname and passed it down from generation to generation. Along with Ji, there are other descendants of Shennong, such as Qi, Fu, Shen, Lu, Jiang, Xu and Xiang, all of whom take place names as surnames.

Here, why do Ji Xiaolan's descendants have opinions and dissatisfaction with Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Copper Teeth, a TV series that praises Ji Xiaolan?

Because, Ji Xiaolan's biggest mistake is to change the tone of people's surnames! In other words, Ji Xiaolan changed his last name!

Some people say, isn't her surname Ji (J)? Yes, Ji Xiaolan is really not surnamed Ji (J). Not only is Ji Xiaolan not surnamed Ji (J), but I am not surnamed Ji (J). We are all surnamed Ji (Jǐ)! You can look up any Chinese dictionary or dictionary if you don't believe me. As we know, the word "Ji" has two pronunciations, rising and falling. Among them, the upper voice "Ji (Jǐ)" has only one meaning: surname.

Here is a brief introduction to the tones of Chinese characters in China. In ancient China, Chinese characters had four tones: Ping, Shang, Qu and Jin. With the development of the times, the causes of flat sound can be divided into flat sound and flat sound. The flat sound is one, the flat sound is two, and the upper sound is three-here, the "up" is three, and the lower sound is four. The tone is gone. The correct pronunciation of our surname "Ji" should be "Jǐ".
