Why do more and more surname families begin to revive surname culture now?

China people's surnames have a very long history. The origin of China's surname can be traced back to the era of Xi Shi about 5,000 years ago. The ancestor Fuxi began to draw gossip and teach people to catch livestock as a stove. This is the first person who started to have a surname in the history of China, and also the person who "took a proper surname and didn't get married" since Fu.

Surname is a sign and symbol of a family's blood relationship. Surnames are derived from the names of tribes or tribal leaders. Its main function is to distinguish the descendants of different clans in the tribe and facilitate intermarriage between different clans. Therefore, the appearance of surnames marks the change from group marriage system to consanguineous marriage system, which can be said to be an important milestone in the progress of human civilization.

Surnames will be passed down from generation to generation, generally unchanged and relatively stable, while surnames change with the changes of feudal cities and official positions, so there will be several surnames in one's descendants or different surnames between father and son. Last name and first name together constitute a person's first name. Therefore, surnames are of great significance in our Chinese nation. Surnames have become a symbol of family continuity.

Nowadays, more and more people are studying surname culture, precisely because culture is constantly formed in the process of historical development. Surnames, as an important part of Chinese national culture, play a powerful role as a link and make a nation have strong cohesion. Surname is a symbol of appellation, a social phenomenon, and also has important cultural significance, bearing a heavy cultural connotation.

It is a fine tradition of the Chinese nation to "cherish the memory of our ancestors and return to their roots" and carry forward the virtues of our ancestors and return to their roots. Surname is a group symbol of social people. The cultural significance given by surnames enables every Chinese descendant to find his own historical home and have a spiritual sense of belonging, thus enhancing the national consciousness and cohesion of Chinese at home and abroad. Therefore, surnames are an indispensable part of our Chinese descendants' lives.
