1. There are five sources
1. It comes from the surname Ji, which is the surname of the grandfather. In the Zhou Dynasty, a senior official was granted the title of Rui State (a vassal state with the surname Ji in the south of Chaoyi City in present-day Dali County, Shaanxi Province, which was destroyed by Qin in 640 BC) and was called Rui Bo in history. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was passed down to Rui Bowan, who once served as Situ in the Zhou Dynasty. However, because Rui Bowan favored his concubines too much, he was driven out of the country by his mother Rui Jiang and lived in Weicheng (today's Ruicheng, Shanxi). Taking his grandfather's character "Wan" as his surname.
2. It also comes from the surname Ji, taking the grandfather's character "Wan" as the surname. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Bi Wan, a senior official in the Jin State, was a senior official of Bi Gonggao. Due to his meritorious service in assisting Duke Xiang of Jin, he was granted the title of Wei (now north of Ruicheng, Shanxi). It was originally a vassal state of the Western Zhou Dynasty. In 661 BC, it was destroyed by Duke Xian of Jin. He granted it to Bi Wan), also known as Wei Wan. His descendants took their grandfather's character "Wan" as their surname and called them Wan.
3. Change of surname from another clan. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Xianbei people in the Northern Wei Dynasty had the compound surname Ye Wan. After Emperor Xiaowen of Wei moved the capital to Luoyang, they changed their name to the single surname Wan in Chinese characters. One is Daibei (generally refers to the Han and Jin dynasty counties and the area north of Daizhou after the Tang Dynasty. It is roughly equivalent to the area in northern Shanxi and Hebei today.) The three-character surname Wanniu was changed from the Yu family to the Wan family.
4. Because King Wu of Zhou "conquered the world with ten thousand people", some people started to use "Wan" as their surname.
5. In ancient times, there were people who played Yiye and lived in Wanniu Yushan in the north of Yinshan Mountain. His descendants took the place of residence as their surname and took the first character "Wan" in the name of the mountain as their surname.
2. Migration and Distribution
There are two main tribes of the Wan surname, namely those descended from Rebowan and Biwan. These two branches later became the main source of the Wan surname in my country. Naturally, the birthplace of the Wan surname should be in the Ruicheng area of ??Shanxi today. Generally speaking, as early as the Warring States Period, the Wan surname had moved into Shandong Province. Before the Han Dynasty, the Wan surname was mainly spread in most of Shanxi, northern Henan and surrounding areas. In the Han Dynasty, the Wan surname was distributed in most areas of northern my country. The surname Wan has "Fufeng" and "Henan" as its hall names. In other words, the Wan surname mainly originated in the Ruicheng area of ??Shanxi Province, but soon became popular in the present-day northern Henan and Guanzhong areas of Shaanxi. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, other clans in Henan changed their surname to Wan, which made the ranks of the Wan family even larger. At the same time, due to the war in the north, the Wan surname, like other noble families, had to move south in large numbers. In the early days, they mainly migrated south and multiplied in present-day Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Hunan and other provinces. Later, they continued to expand to the surrounding areas, and even spread to most areas south of the Yangtze River during the Song Dynasty.
