Meaning & History

Add to web page
Yao

Chinese 姚: from the name of an ancient place (Yao Ruins), in presentday Henan province. According to legend, the model emperor Shun (2257–2205 BC) was conceived and born here, after his mother was so greatly moved by the beauty of a rainbow that she became pregnant. Some of Shun's descendants later adopted the place name Yao as their surname.
