Is Rong a Manchu surname?

The surname Rong is not a Manchu surname.

The ancestor of the Rong family was Rong Gong, whose surname was Ji. According to Sima Qian's "Historical Records", the ancestor of the Ji family was Houji, the great-grandson of the Yellow Emperor. In other words, the Rong surname comes from the surname Ji, and the surname Ji comes from the Yellow Emperor. Therefore, the ancient ancestor of the Rong surname is the Yellow Emperor. Rong Gong is the first person with the Rong family name, and Rong Shu is the first person with the Rong surname. However, since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the distinction between surnames and surnames has gradually become blurred. By the time Sima Qian wrote historical records, surnames and surnames were completely equivalent.

That’s why we can say that Rong Gong is the ancestor of our surname. "Spring and Autumn" records that in the first year of Jingzhuang, the king sent Uncle Rong to Xihuan Gong to order an order. In the fourth year of King Zhouzhuang, Ji Yun, the monarch of Lu State, passed away and Ji Tong succeeded to the throne.

The King of Zhouzhuang ordered Uncle Rong to go to the State of Lu to give Ji Yun the posthumous title of "Gong Huan". This year was the first year of Luzhuang. Uncle Rong was granted the land of Wenyang and settled in Wenshang, Shandong. Subsequent generations multiplied and celebrities emerged in large numbers. Rong Qiqi, a famous scholar in the Spring and Autumn Period, and Rong Qi, a disciple of Confucius, were both descendants of Uncle Rong.
