I know there is someone named "Ouyang", is there anyone named "Ou"?

The surnames Ou and Ouyang come from the same source, both coming from the Si surname of Dayu. The three surnames Ou, Ou and Ouyang are from the same clan

1. They come from the Ouye family and come from the same origin as Ou. In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a craftsman named Ou Yezi. Because he lived in Ouyu Mountain and was famous for smelting and forging weapons, he took Ou Ye as his surname. Ou Yezi later moved to Yeshan, Minhou County, Fujian, and forged five kinds of sharp swords for the King of Yue, including Zhanlu, Juque, Shengxie, Yuchang, and Chunhu. Famous for a while. Later, his apprentice forged three sharp swords, Long Yuan, Tai'a, and Gongbu, for the King of Chu. Ou Yezi's descendants took their ancestor's name as their surname, forming the Ou surname. In some cases, the word "owed" is removed and the surname is district. Ou has the same pronunciation as District.

2, comes from the surname Si. The surname Ouyang has the same origin, and the surname Ou can be traced back to the sage Xia Yu more than 4,000 years ago. After Shaokang of the Xia Dynasty gained the throne, he sealed his concubine Wuyu in Kuaiji (today's Shaoxing, Zhejiang) to guard the ancestral ancestral halls of Dayu. The remaining descendants later established the Yue Kingdom. During the Spring and Autumn Period, King Gou Jian of Yue destroyed the State of Wu, gathered all the princes in Xuzhou, and became the overlord of the generation. During the Warring States Period, Gou Jian's sixth grandson Wujiang raised an army to conquer Qi, intending to revive Gou Jian's legacy and dominate the Central Plains. King Wei of Qi sent someone to tell Wujiang: "If the King of Yue wants to be the overlord, he should first attack the Chu State. Chu State has a vast territory and rich products. If he can defeat the Chu State, the King of Yue can naturally become the overlord. Even if he cannot win, , at least it can get the support of South Korea, Wei and other countries that are enemies of Chu, and other small countries will submit, and they can also become the overlord. Now the Chu army is scattered on the border from Qilu in the east to Hanzhong and Western Guizhou in the west. What's the point of not taking this opportunity to attack Chu State, but to attack the relatively weak Qi State?" After hearing this, Wujiang felt that it made sense, so he turned his focus to attack Chu State, but King Chu Cheng mobilized an army to completely defeat him. Defeated, Wujiang was also killed by the Chu army. Taking advantage of the victory, the Chu army advanced and took away all the land of Wu that the Yue State had captured. After the death of King Wujiang of Yue, several of his sons competed for the throne, each dominating his own side. From then on, the country of Yue fell into pieces and had no chance of becoming a powerful country. Wujiang's second son was named Ti. He occupied the Yang (south side of the mountain) Ouyu Mountain in Wucheng (now Wuxing, Zhejiang) and called himself "Ouyang Marquis". His descendants became the Ouyang family and the Ou family.

Both the Ou family and the Ouyang family have a long family lineage of four to five thousand years. As a person with the surname Ou, there is nothing more worthy of pride than this honor! The three surnames District, Ou, and Ouyang are from the same clan

2. Migration, distribution, reproduction and migration

Migration distribution: mainly distributed in Ji'an, Yongfeng, Wanzai, Jiangxi, Zhijiang, Jingzhou, Hubei, Qianjiang, Guangzhou, Heyuan, Henan Xinzheng, Sichuan Mianyang, Sichuan Suining, Anhui Fuyang, Chuzhou, Hunan Changsha, Liuyang, Longhui, Guizhou, Guangxi Tengxian and other places.

Among the thousands of Chinese surnames, many surnames are derived from the same ancestor. In the long history, due to escape, migration, refuge and other reasons, the names of the same ancestor have changed. Descendants have different surnames

There is no doubt that the surname Ou originated from the Yue State more than 2,400 years ago, which is now the area south of Zhejiang and Jiangsu. For a long time after acquiring the surname, the surname Ou continued to multiply in the above-mentioned places. During the Western Han Dynasty, during the reign of Wenjing and the subsequent reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the country was strong, the people were wealthy, and the northern economy was prosperous. At that time, the south of the Yangtze River was wild, the people were uncivilized, and the economic development was lagging behind. Therefore, the Ou surname went north to the Central Plains for officialdom and making a living. One of the Ou surnames crossed the Yellow River and entered Linfen, Shanxi. After a long period of multiplication, they multiplied and became a prominent family in Linfen, Shanxi and other places. This This place used to belong to Pingyang County, so later generations of descendants of the Ou surname used "Pingyang" as their county hall name. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ou Bao, a native of Yuzhang (now Nanchang, Jiangxi Province), was recorded in the annals of history, indicating that the land east of the Yangtze River was still the base for the reproduction of people with the Ou surname. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, people with the Ou surname were still rarely seen in history books, but it is an indisputable historical fact that the Ou surname flourished in Pingyang County. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Shanxi also became a place of disputes between warlords, and Pingyang County has always been a battleground for military strategists. It goes without saying that people with the Ou surname were devastated by the war. In the early Tang Dynasty, Chen Zheng and Chen Yuanguang's father and son entered Fujian to open Zhangnan, and some people with the surname Ou followed them into Fujian. Therefore, people with the surname Ou moved south to southern Fujian starting from the early Tang Dynasty.

During the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, the surname Ou spread to a wider range of southern provinces. People with the surname Ou settled in present-day Sichuan, Hubei, Hunan and other places. For example, Ou Honglian settled in Changsha, Hunan Province due to his official career. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, some people with the Ou surname moved to Guangdong and Guangxi. After the mid-Ming Dynasty, some people from Fujian and Guangdong with European surnames went to Taiwan to make a living, and then spread to Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States. Today, the European surname is widely distributed across the country, especially in Guangdong, Hunan and other provinces. The European surname in the above two provinces accounts for about 61% of the country's Han population with the European surname.

Before that, their ancestors lived in Putian, Fujian. In fact, whether they are Ou, Ou or Ouyang, their ancestors came from the Central Plains, passed through Putian, and went south to Fujian and Guangdong.
