【释义】欧的主体是“区”。“区”的本义是藏匿,表示众多之义。区、欧、殴作为姓氏都是同一来源。
【起源】夏朝帝王少康的儿子无余,被封于会稽,建立了越国,为诸侯国。春秋时被吴国所灭。十九年后,钩践又复国。到钩践六世孙无疆为越王的时候,被楚国所灭,无疆的次子蹄被封于乌程欧余山的南部,以山南为阳,所以称为欧阳亭侯,无疆的支庶子孙,以封地山名和封爵名为姓氏,形成了欧、欧阳、欧侯三个姓氏。

【Meaning】
The primary component of the character Ou (欧) is "Qu" (区). The original meaning of Qu is "to hide or conceal," which also carries the connotation of "multitude" or "numerous." In the context of Chinese genealogy, the surnames Qu (区), Ou (欧), and Ou (殴) all share the same ancestral origin.
【Origins】
From the State of Yue (Xia Dynasty Lineage): The lineage traces back to Wuyu, the son of the Xia Dynasty Emperor Shaokang. Wuyu was enfeoffed in Kuaiji, where he established the State of Yue.
The Rise and Fall of Yue: During the Spring and Autumn period, Yue was temporarily annexed by the State of Wu, only to be restored nineteen years later by the legendary King Goujian.
The Three Branches: By the time of Goujian's sixth-generation descendant, King Wujiang, the State of Yue was conquered by the State of Chu. Wujiang's second son, Ti, was enfeoffed in the area south of Mount Ouyu (in present-day Wucheng). In ancient Chinese geography, the south side of a mountain is called Yang, thus he was titled the Marquis of Ouyang Pavilion.
Formation of Surnames: The descendants of Wujiang adopted names based on their fief (Mount Ouyu) and their noble title (Marquis). This led to the formation of three distinct but related surnames: Ou (欧), Ouyang (欧阳), and Ouhou (欧侯).

【釋義】
「歐」的主體是「區」。區的本義為藏匿,引申有眾多之意。在姓氏來源中,區、歐、毆三姓均為同宗同源,承襲自同一血脈。
【起源】
源於越國(夏朝後裔): 出自夏朝帝王少康之子無餘。無餘被封於會稽,建立了越國。
越國的興衰: 春秋時期越國曾被吳國所滅,十九年後,勾踐臥薪嘗膽成功復國。傳至勾踐六世孫無疆為越王時,越國最終被楚國所滅。
歐陽亭侯: 無疆的次子蹄被封於烏程歐餘山之南部。古代稱山南為「陽」,故蹄被稱為「歐陽亭侯」。
三姓並出: 無疆的支庶子孫以封地山名「歐餘」或封爵名為姓,逐漸演變成了歐、歐陽、歐侯三個姓氏。因此,歐姓與歐陽姓在歷史上視為一家。
