Since I lack inspiration and am quite uncreative these days, I hereby initiate this blog with an uninspired, uncreative list of Chinese surnames that I have encountered and that I find interesting or that seem uncommon:
邹 zou1
甄 zhen1
岑 cen2
颛 zhuan1
劭 shao4
樊 fan2
邘 yu2
邢 xing2
虞 yu2

I think it is a really interesting post, and I will sometimes enrich it by adding comments with new Chinese surnames.

Here is one more great surname that I pity not to have chosen: 司空. Of course it stood for a minister of public affairs, but how great it will sound if reinterpreted as “emptiness manager” or “space manager”.
