Chinese Surname
Meaning: The surname 唐 (Táng) has its origins in ancient China, tracing back to Emperor Yao, one of the legendary Five Emperors. Emperor Yao was originally enfeoffed in the region of Tang (present-day Linfen, Shanxi), hence the name Tang Yao. His descendants adopted the name of their ancestral territory as their surname. Another theory suggests the surname originated from Tang Shu Yu, a son of King Wu of Zhou, who was also enfeoffed in the region of Tang. The surname 唐 is deeply rooted in Chinese history, symbolizing the legacy of ancient nobility.
