There are many types, and they are particularly good sounding ancient compound surnames, why are the

Why is it difficult to see those very good-sounding compound surnames in today's daily life? There are several reasons for this:

01.In ancient times, there were very few compound surnames. We ordinary people will form an illusion that there are many fewer surnames in ancient times than in ancient times.

In fact, in ancient times, the number of people who used revival was also very small, and most people used a single surname. The reason why we think that there are more people with compound surnames in ancient times is mainly because what we know is generally celebrities who used compound surnames in ancient times, forming the illusion that there are a large number of people.

In ancient times, the proportion of people who used compound surnames was also relatively low, and most people also used single surnames, and compound surnames also belonged to a small number of people. ButSince the population base has become larger, the number of people with multiple surnames will become smaller, and the chances of us seeing multiple surnames will be smaller, so we have formed the illusion that there are fewer and fewer people using multiple surnames.

02.Historically, there have been large-scale surname changes. There have indeed been several large-scale surname change activities in history, and the more well-known ones areIn the pre-Qin period, there was a change of surname to a single surname, and later there was also a change of surname in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and there was also a change of surname in the period of Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

There are many single surnames, in fact, they don't know that they used to be compound surnames, with the evolution of history, in order to make the surname more concise and more convenient to use. Many surnames have changed, especially when the compound surname is changed to a single surname.

For example, those who used to have the surname Ximen will later change to the surname Men, those with the surname Ouyang will change to the surname Ou or Yang, and those with the surname Dongfang will change to the surname Fang ......There are many such compound surnames that become single. Later, there were many changes of surnames. Didn't the reform of Emperor Xiaowen that appeared in the Northern Wei Dynasty carry out a series of cultural reforms?

For the sake of sinicization, the compound surnames of many ethnic minorities have been changed to single surnames, his own name is Tuoba Hong, and he himself first changed it to Yuan Hong, and under his advocacy, many surnames have changed.

There are many reasons, and most of them are self-motivated. In ancient times, if someone committed a major crime in the family, he could take the initiative to change his surname and be exempted.

Part of it is because of the reason for changing the surname Hu in the early Ming Dynasty, contributing to culture and unification, and the other part is the phenomenon that the people themselves want to change to a single surname, that is, to adapt to the times.

In ancient times, many compound surnames were the traditional surnames of ethnic minorities, which gradually disappeared with the integration of ethnic groups; Others are simplified or differentiated.

For example, Linghu and Dugu are both Xianbei surnames, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty changed Tuoba to Yuan, and Dugu to Liu: the simplified surname Ouyang, some are simplified to Ou, and some are simplified to Yang.
