How do you pronounce your last name?

The pronunciations of Yi language are xún and huán, both of which can be used as surnames. There are many surnames that read xún, but few that read Hu á n. According to the Records of Tongzhi Family, in addition to taking the country as the surname, some descendants of Kuaihou later removed the radicals and added grass as Xunshi. The extended data show that the surnames of Huan and Xun are of the same origin, and the surname of Huan and Xunzi Sun Zun Huan Hou is the ancestor.

Huan family is rare in contemporary times, with a small population. Generally speaking, from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Tang and Song Dynasties, most of the ancestors of the Huan family lived in Shanxi and Shaanxi today, especially in the south-central part of Shanxi Province, namely Jiangzhou or Jinyang House in ancient times. After the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, due to various reasons, especially several large-scale immigrants in the early Ming Dynasty, the ancestors of the Huan family moved to northeast Henan, north-central Jiangsu, central and western Shandong, Shaanxi, Gansu and other places on a large scale, forming several large communities at present.

According to the genealogy of Bian Shi in Qingzhou, in the 14th year of Ming Dynasty, four brothers, Gang, Ling, Zhen and Duo, moved from Zaoqiang County in North Zhili to Qingzhou Prefecture in Shandong Province because of the war. Only Dugong stayed, and the other three people disappeared. They gave birth to two children, eight children, and eight children gave birth to 24 children, which is 24 branches. In addition to Qingzhou, Huangxian, Yishui, Zibo, Weifang and other counties and cities also have a large population.
