Surname Origin
"Origin of the surname 'Dai': 1. It originated from the Zi surname and was formed based on posthumous titles. According to 'Yuanhe Xingzuan', after Duke Dai of the State of Song (reigned from 799 BC to 766 BC) passed away during the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Wu of Song, Sikong, succeeded to the throne. His collateral sons (non - eldest sons) took the posthumous title 'Dai' of their grandfather as their surname. 2. It was derived from a state name. There was a state called Dai during the Spring and Autumn Period, which was located in present - day Lankao County, Henan Province. It was annexed by the State of Zheng in the 10th year of Duke Yin (713 BC). The people of the state took the original state name 'Dai' as their surname. This is recorded in 'Zuo Zhuan' and 'Tongzhi - Shizu Lue'."
