    The eight Mongolian surnames are Qiyan, Qi, Qi, Chen, Qin, Nagusi, Na, and Xiaode. Mongolian surnames, since the 20th century, Chinese Mongolians have gradually adopted Chinese surnames, and Mongolia enacted a surname law in 1997, stipulating that Mongolian citizens should choose the names of historical figures or ancestors as surnames.

    There are four main Chinese surnames of the Mongolian nationality, with the name of the tribe as the surname, the clan name as the surname, the ancestor name as the surname, and the Chinese translation of the surname as the surname.

    The origin of the Mongolian surname

    Mongolian Chinese surnames are generally produced in three ways: homophony, transliteration, and self-selection. The homophony is to choose a Mongolian surname, a certain syllable, and the solid transliteration is to translate the Mongolian surname into Chinese, and use one of its words as a Chinese surname, and there is also a choice of words, such as Weng Niute, who believes that Weng Niute is a Gaomen people, so the Chinese surname is Gao.

    Due to the inconvenience of transportation and communication at that time, the same ethnic group in different regions had time to negotiate in the future, so the same Mongolian surname may appear in different regions with different Chinese surnames. Such as begging for Yan, now using the Han surname Qi, Qi, Qin, Chen, Qiao, Qi, and Er, only Jin to take the near sound of Bor, and now using the Han surname as a treasure, Bao, Bao, Bo, Qi, Luo, Bo, Bo, and the children who have lived in the mainland for a long time are mostly expressed in Chinese characters such as Lu, Wang, and Liang.

    Wu Liang Ha, now with Han surnames Wu, Wu, Wu, Wu, Yu, Liang, Wei, Baya Wuti, now with Han surnames Yu, Bai, Fu, Chahar, now with Han surnames Chang, Zhang, Bai, Chen, etc.

    Mongolians traditionally do not have strict surnames, Mongolians usually use the tribal name of the tribe to which they belong before the first name, but the tribal name is not directly linked to the individual's name as a surname, so Mongolians usually only have a first name, no surname. Since the 20th century, many Mongolians have taken Han surnames for themselves, and Mongolian.

    In 1997, the "Surname Law" was enacted, which stipulates that Mongolian nationals should choose the names of historical figures or ancestors as their surnames.

    Very surprised to find a lot of Xilin Gol League.

    There is no surname record of the Mongolian people, there is no surname record, only the first name, the Mongolian people here follow the surnames of the Han people, for example, the surname of Wuliang Hatai has become the surname Wu, the surname Wu, etc., many Mongolians also have their own genealogy, and the Mongolian people do not have a family tree This thing is also a very worthy of study, in the end, do the Mongolians have their own genealogical records and surnames to describe the biography?

    This is still from Genghis Khan.

    Speaking of which, **family.

    People should write their own family tree, this is certain, after all, the history of the Mongols is too glorious, and they must record their own family history, and the famous Mongolian writer Yin Zhannahi's home hides a lot of cars in Mongolian.

    Information, after all, Yin Zhannaxi is a descendant of the Mongolian ** family, grew up in a superior family environment, grew up in the stacks of books, and there must be a lot of basis for studying his family history, if Yin Zhannaxi before, the Mongolians did not write their own history, Yin Zhannaxi has no basis to write the completion of the masterpiece of Mongolian Qing history, so my point of view is that the Mongolian nobles must have a tradition of genealogy, this is a must, and it is written in Mongolian, not to mention, the Mongolians do not have the problem of surname records.

    The fact that some Mongolians do not have a surname is also due to historical reasons, that is, Mongolian residents almost no surname during the Soviet Union, and by 1990, many Mongolians had resumed their surnames, and many of them had lost their surnames.

    Genghis Khan's surname), Mongolia's population has reached about 700,000, in fact, some people are not only Jinjin at all, and later changed a lot, so the Mongolian surname record is still a particularly complicated problem

    It is because the Mongols live and move a lot, so their life is very unstable, and there is no such habit to record surnames.

    Because the surname was originally introduced to the Mongolian people from the Central Plains. But the sinicization at that time could not be completely comprehensive, so there are still many Mongolians who do not have traditional surnames.

    Mongolian surnames are generally based on tribal names:

    1. Horqin.

    In the twenties of the fifteenth century, the people of Hasar were 4,000 households, and the people who stayed in Hulunbuir were Alu Korqin. "Horqin" gradually evolved from the name of the military institution to the general name of the various ministries to which the descendants of Hesar belonged, forming the famous Horqin Department.

    2. Karaqin.

    Karaqin is an ancient tribe that lived in Chenghai (present-day Kobdo, Mongolia) in the Yuan Dynasty. In the Northern Yuan Dynasty, it belonged to Yongshebu Wanhu, which was owned by Dayan Khan's grandson Bayas Hale, and moved south to the edge of the Dushikou. Karaqin is the Mongolian word for shepherd who makes black horse milk.

    3. Turgot.

    Also known as Taorigut, it was originally a common people in the forest, in the sixties of the thirteenth century, he raised an army with Ali Buge against Kublai Khan's claim to be emperor, and after the defeat, he crossed the Altai Mountains to the Irtysh River and the northern edge of the Junggar Basin. Turghut is the majority of the present-day Kalmyk people. The most famous events in the history of the Turks are none other than the Crusade led by Worbasi in the mid-to-late 18th century (the return to the East was merely political propaganda) and the exile of Stalin** by Stalin** of the descendants of the Turks who remained in the lower Volga River at the end of World War II.

    4. Bahrain. Also known as Bai Ren, the general of the Yuan Dynasty Boyan came from Bahrain and led the troops to attack the Song Dynasty. The Bahrain Department is one of the ancient tribes of Mongolia, and its name was first seen in the 13th century Mongolian masterpiece "The Secret History of Mongolia", and in the early Ming Dynasty, the "Secret History" written by the Ming people in Chinese characters was translated as Ba Alin.

    The 14th-century masterpiece "Historical Collection", written in Persian, is commonly known as barin, and translated into Chinese as "Eight Neighbors".

    5. Balulas.

    At the beginning of the thirteenth century, most of the Balulas moved west with Chacha and Taixi and became vassals of the Chahatai Khanate. In the 14th century, Timur established the Timur Empire, which became another vast empire after Genghis Khan. Barulasi is one of the Mongolian surnames and comes from the Barulasi clan.

    The Barurasi clan is a Mongolian tribe, originating from Niren Mongolia, whose ancestors can be traced back to Haratsaer, and Genghis Khan (everyone also originated from Boduanchar), and the famous figure in this steppe era is Kublai.

    Some Mongolians do not have surnames. The same is true now. There are also some Mongolians who originally have the surname "Han".

    For example: "forest", "white", "gold", etc. It is neither a homophonic surname, nor a Mongolian transliterated surname.

    Among them, the other situation is the case of taking the surname by meaning. For example, "look" (meaning stone) takes "stone" as a surname.

    It can't be generalized.

    Many Mongolians do not have a recorded surname, which is due to historical reasons. Mongolian residents had almost no surnames during the Soviet era, and by 1990 many Mongolians had reverted to their surnames, and many of them took the surname of Genghis Khan, and many later changed it. Therefore, the issue of the recording of Mongolian surnames is particularly complicated.

    Because in history, the Mongols have experienced many wars, and once they lose, they will lose a lot of population, so many surnames have no inheritance, and many Mongols take names casually.

    Because Mongolians usually use tribal names as surnames, but they are not combined with first names as surnames, there are people who only have a first name and no surname.

    It may be due to historical reasons, because before Mongolia was divided into tribes, only family names, and few people put polysyllabic family names in front of their names. Over time, the Mongols may have forgotten their family name.

    In ancient times, Mongolians did not have surnames themselves, so naturally there were no records of Mongolian surnames, and it was not until 1997 that Mongolian surnames were actually used.

    Mongolians do not traditionally have strict surnames, but they do have clan and tribal names with that special plural ascending suffix. The family name is used to address the person before the first name, but the tribal name is not directly linked to the individual's first name as a surname.

    Mongolian surname. To prevent confusion among people with the same name, Mongolians also retain the custom of attaching a patronymic to a name, and in most cases write only the first letter of the patronymic in accordance with modern usage.

    Since the Yuan Dynasty, many Mongolians have switched to using Chinese characters for unisexuality, and after the Ming Dynasty, Mongolians have gradually changed to Han surnames.

    The phenomenon of surnames and surnames is also common, such as Wuyunda to the surname Wu, Bayinhu surname Ba, etc.

    Mongolian surnames are:

    Take the tribal name as the surname. For example, when the Chinese translation of the "History of the Yuan Dynasty" mistakenly translated Qiyuanbu as Qiwuwen, and mistakenly recorded Genghis Khan's surname as Temujin and Qiwuwen. Qi Wu Wen should be the source of Qi, the old translation of the Ming Dynasty insulted and derogatory called Qiyan, and the Ling Jing was actually the name of the tribe to which Genghis Khan's Wang faction belonged.

    Take the clan name as the surname. For example, Baoerzhijin, also translated as Borjide, Borzigit, Borjijin, Baorot, Baoluo, Borot, Buro, Burjijin, Borji, Taiji, etc., is one of the Lingluwen tribes. Take the ancestor's name as the surname.

    For example, Gadamerin takes the Chinese transliteration of the Mo character of his ancestor Molettu as his surname, and his Chinese name is Kaishen as Meng Qingshan;The descendants of the former banner prince of Guo Erros, the chargé d'affaires in Beijing, Fugarit, take the first character Fu as the surname;If the patronymic name is Buren, then take the first word Buren as the surname;The patronymic name is Hude, and the homonym of the first word of Hude is taken as the surname. Directly take the Han surname as the surname. For example, directly use Han surnames such as Wang, Li, Liu, and Zhang.
