Meaning & Origins
Chinese 车: from a word meaning ‘cart’. During the Han dynasty (206 BC–220 AD) there was a prime minister who became to old to walk very far unaided, so he had himself brought to and from work in a cart, and became known as ‘Prime Minister Cart’. His descendants adopted the character for cart as their surname.
