Zhou's surname originated from Weihe Plain in Shaanxi Province. At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, as the capital moved from Shaanxi to Henan, the surname of Zhou also moved from west to east. After Pingdong moved to Luoyang, Zhou greatly multiplied and became a giant family.

Initially, Zhou's surname was mainly centered on Henan and Shaanxi. Qin destroyed the six countries, and after the war at the end of Qin Dynasty, Zhou moved to southern Henan and northern Jiangsu and became a famous family. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Zhou moved south with the gentry of the Central Plains.

In the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, warlords scuffled, especially in the late Northern Song Dynasty and the late Southern Song Dynasty, Mongolian soldiers went south, and a large number of Zhou surnames from Henan, Shandong and other central plains moved south, mainly to Fujian, Zhejiang and Guangdong. At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, Ji 'an Prefecture in Jiangxi Province immigrated to Shaoyang, Hunan Province.

Since Ming and Qing Dynasties, the provinces with relatively concentrated Zhou surnames are Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Fujian and other provinces. In the late Qing Dynasty after the Opium War, Zhou began to emigrate overseas.

Today, Zhou surnames are mainly distributed in the Yangtze River and Huaihe River basins, forming a high proportion of distribution along the Yangtze River provinces and Henan and Shandong provinces. Hunan, Jiangsu and Sichuan account for 26.7% of the total population of Zhou, followed by Hubei, Henan, Zhejiang, Anhui, Shandong, Guangdong and Jiangxi, accounting for 38% of the total population of Zhou.
