Chinese Surname
Meaning: The surname 胥 (Xū) originates from the Spring and Autumn Period. It is derived from the noble Xuchen, a senior minister of the State of Jin, who was granted land in the region of Xu. His descendants adopted the name of the land as their surname. Alternatively, it may have arisen from ancient official titles such as 'xuli' (minor officials) or 'xutu' (laborers under the government), with their descendants taking the occupational name as their surname.
