Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Distinguish". Script error: No such module "other uses". Script error: No such module "For". Template:Infobox surname Xing (Chinese: 邢) is a Chinese surname. There are two hypothesized sources for the extant catalogue of surnames:
1. According to the Yuanhe Xing Zuan, Xing is originated from Ji (姬), the royal family of Zhou dynasty in China. The fourth son of the Duke of Zhou, was appointed the ruler of the State of Xing (now Xingtai city of Hebei Province). The year 662 BC saw the State of Xing taken over by the State of Wei, and the noble descendants entitled themselves their former state name as their surnames.
2. According to Xing Kao (zh:姓考), or Surname Investigation, in the Spring and Autumn period, Dafu (zh:大夫) Han Xuanzi of the State of Jin, along with his family and offspring resided in Xing county (now east of Wen county of Henan Province), and later his descendants had the surname Xing after the county name.
