Definition & Meaning

Wei (危) translates to "fear" or "trepidation." The original meaning of Wei refers to the dread or fear felt when standing in a high place. It is an ideogram (associative compound character):

• The top part "厃" represents a person standing on the edge of a cliff, signifying a high and perilous position.

• The bottom part "巳" represents fear, implying that one should be self-vigilant, cautious, and composed.

Origins

1. Derived from the Jinyun (缙云) surname: Descended from the Sanmiao tribe (descendants of Chiyou). The ancient Sanmiao Kingdom was located in the regions of present-day Hunan, Hubei, and Jiangxi. Their descendants later migrated to Sanwei (located in the Dunhuang region of Gansu), and adopted the name of their settlement as their surname.

2. Derived from the Ji (姬) surname: Descended from a concubine's son of King Wu of Zhou during the early Western Zhou Dynasty. The surname was officially bestowed by the emperor.
