What are the top ten Hakka surnames?

The top ten Hakka surnames are Lin, Fan, Yao, Xu, Li, Huang, Chen, Zhang, Guo and Zeng.

1 and Li

In the past 600 years, the degree and direction of Li population movement are very different from those in Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties. Especially the movement from the east to the north-central part of China is greater than that from the north to the southeast. At the same time, the migration from southwest to northeast has become an important flow direction.

Huang has two main sources, both of which take the country as their surname. The surname Huang originated in the north of China, then moved to the Central Plains, and established the State of Huang. After Huang was destroyed by Chu, some clans began to move south.

Huang, a Hakka in Ninghua, is a descendant of Qiao Shan Palace. Its founder is Huang Hua, the ninth son of Gong Li, whose real name is Wei Fang and his name is Zhang.

Also known as Huang Ning, or Huang Chaohua, was named after the "Ninghua" where they moved. In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, some Huang families in Fujian and Guangdong moved to Taiwan Province Province, a populous province. Together with Chen, Lin and Zheng, they became the four major surnames in Taiwan Province Province. They are called "spent half a day under Chen Lin, while Huang Zheng stood on both sides of the street". Later, Huang moved overseas.
