Meaning & Origins
Chinese 朱: from the name of the state of Zhu in present-day Shandong province. Wu Wang, the first king (1122–1116 BC) of the Zhou dynasty, granted to Cao Xie, a descendant of the emperor Zhuan Xu of the 26th century BC, lordship of the state of Zhu (see also Cao). Later, this state was conquered by the state of Chu, after which many descendants of the Zhu aristocracy took a modified form of the character Zhu for their surname; the pronunciation is the same. The name has become very common in southern China.
