How it's used
This is a two character compound surname that originated from the Xianbei people during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. It is rarely encountered in daily life and is most famous to modern speakers through characters in Jin Yong's wuxia novels. When addressing someone with this surname, always use the full two characters as it is never shortened to a single character.
