List of common Chinese surnames

Wikipedia

 
This is a list of the top 100 most common Chinese surnames, displayed by Mandarin (linguistics)|Mandarin, Cantonese (linguistics)|Cantonese and Min Nan (Hokkien) transliterations. Other common transliterations, used before the formalization and popularization of existing Romanizations, still can be found in the names of some overseas Chinese. Common transliterations in other Chinese languages (dialects) used by some overseas Chinese whose ancestral mother tongue is neither Mandarin, Cantonese or Minnan also exist, as well as pronunciations in other languages, particularly Korean and Vietnamese, in which these surnames are commonly used.
