Change his surname from his home. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, many Xianbei people took "Brugu" as their surname and renamed it Lu after moving their capital to Luoyang.

The two Lu surnames are mainly distributed in Shandong, Henan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei and other provinces. Most of the people surnamed Lu in these places are descendants of Lu Tong. The Book of the New Tang Dynasty Prime Minister's Genealogy Table records that Lu Fa, the son of Lu Tong, was a doctor and a duke of posthumous title. Lu has two sons: Lu Wan and Lu Wei. Lu Wansheng, Lu Lie, a Chinese character, was a county magistrate and a captain in the Western Han Dynasty, and was deeply loved by Wu people.

Later, it developed into Lu's Lean (equivalent to Boxing, Gaoqing, Huantai, Guangrao and Shouguang in Shandong today). Lu Biao gave birth to Lu Hong and Lu Hong gave birth to Lu Hui. Lu Hui was an admonisher in Jin Dynasty, and he also divided Lu's admonishers. By the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the population of Northern and Southern Shandong had a large-scale development. After the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Lu's family spread all over the country. Lu family in Taiwan Province province ranks lower in the distribution of surnames in Taiwan Province province. According to the Taiwan Province Provincial Annals, Chronicles of Characters and Clans (edited by Sheng Qingyi, published by Wen Wei 1973, published by Wen Zhong Book), the ranking is108,439 households.

There are many township areas: Qiaotou in Kaohsiung, Songshan District in Taipei, Jin Kui District in Taipei, Yonghe City and Guting District in Taipei. At present, there is no detailed information on the distribution of land surnames in Hong Kong among various tribes. Judging from the people surnamed Lu in Hong Kong, it comes from two aspects: first, moving in from the mainland; First, I grew up in this port. Celebrities from the mainland who moved to Hong Kong are mainly active in Hong Kong's economic circles, among which Lu Qingtian, Lu Dajian, Lu Daquan, Lu Xiaopei and Lu are famous. The surname Lu of Macao is famous by calligrapher Lu Hai in Macao. Among the ethnic minorities, the surname Lu is mainly distributed in the Korean, Hezhe, Mongolian, Zhuang, Yao, Buyi and Hani ethnic groups. Korean: Mainly distributed in Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning provinces and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The arrangement of Korean surnames and surnames is the same as that of Han nationality, with surnames coming first and surnames coming last. Most of them are single surnames. The surnames of Korean people in China are similar to those of Han people. According to the investigation of 1999, the surname of Korean in China is about 100, including Lu. Hezhe: Most Hezhe people living in the lower reaches of Heilongjiang, Songhua and Wusuli rivers today have Han surnames. A Han surname often comes from two or more Hezhe surnames. These Han surnames are generally single-word surnames, and the number is small. At present, among Hezhe people living along Songhua River and Wusuli River, including Lu, there are only 14 surnames. These single-word surnames are Hezhe surnames derived from the influence of Han nationality in the process of economic, cultural and long-term friendly coexistence between Hezhe and Han nationality. Mongolian: Mongolian surnames are more complicated. Their names used to be polysyllabic. Influenced by the Han nationality, it gradually evolved into monosyllables, and many of them took Chinese homophonic as their surnames. Among these dozens of Mongolian single surnames, some evolved from Mongolian surnames, family names and personal names, and some adopted Han surnames, including Lu surnames. Zhuang: Zhuang is the most populous minority in China, mainly living in Guangxi and Yunnan, and the rest are distributed in Guangdong, Hunan and Guizhou. In history, some Han people lived in Han areas, assimilated with Zhuang people, and their surnames remained Han. On the surface, some Zhuang surnames are the same as Han surnames, but there are differences in pronunciation and meaning. For example, "Lu" is a numeral in Chinese, and it can also refer to the mainland or land, but it means green or bird in Zhuang language. There are two theories about the origin of the surname Lu of Zhuang nationality. As soon as tribal leaders gather in Jiangyan to give their surnames, the tribes that can shoot birds take Zhuang language (bird) as their surnames. On the other hand, in addition to the surnames brought by immigrants from other places, there are mainly surnames developed from the original totem belief, and Lu's surname is probably due to the worship of birds in ancient times. Yao nationality: Yao nationality mainly lives in mountainous areas of Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou and Hunan, and has long lived a life of wandering farming. Due to their constant mobility and relocation, they pay special attention to their contact with each other and the continuation of their surnames. The surnames of the Yao nationality are predestined from the legend of the origin of their own nation, and some have moved into the Yao nationality from all directions one after another, resulting in the surnames of the Han nationality. For example, among the more than 10 Han surnames of Dayaozhai nationality in Nandan County, Guangxi, there is the surname Lu. Jing nationality: Formerly known as Yue nationality, it is the only ethnic group in southern China that focuses on marine fishing. They mainly live in Shanxin, Wutou and Danji Islands in southern Guangxi. According to the investigation of the old people of Jing nationality and the textual research of local cultural relics, we can know that the ancestors of Jing nationality moved in from Tushan, Chunhua, Yidi and Ruixi in Vietnam, and moved to the residential area of Yaoshan New Island after occupying Shandong. Buyi nationality: mainly distributed in Qiannan, Qianxinan Buyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Anshun area and Guiyang suburb of Guizhou Province. This is an agricultural country, and it likes to live in lowlands near water. Buyi nationality has the characteristics of openness in surname and culture. Han surnames first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and most of them entered the Buyi area in the Ming Dynasty. Now the surname of Buyi people is the same as that of Han people, and the surname of Lu is also a common surname. Hani people: Hani people mainly live in the red river and Lancang river basins in southern Yunnan, and some are distributed in Myanmar, Laos and other places. Hani surnames are used late and have a small scope. The earliest surname of Hani nationality is the Han surname given to local officials in southern Yunnan by the magistrate in Lin 'an, Yunnan in the early Ming Dynasty. With the spread of Tusi's use of Han surname, the people under their jurisdiction gradually adopted Han surname.
