Migration and Distribution (No available information) The Feng surname is not listed among the top 100 surnames in the Mainland and Taiwan. The Feng surname originated from the Ji surname. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Mu of Zheng had a son named Gongzi Feng, who served as a high - ranking official during the reign of Duke Xi of Zheng. Feng's grandsons, Shi and Juan, took their grandfather's name as their surname, thus establishing the Feng clan. At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, the 17th son of King Wen of Zhou was enfeoffed in the Feng State (east of present - day Hu County, Shaanxi Province). His descendants took the name of the state as their surname, becoming the Feng clan. Later, some descendants took the left part of the character "Feng" (the traditional form of "Feng") as their surname, that is, the simplified "Feng" character, thus obtaining the Feng surname. The clan is known to have its ancestral home in Songyang County (around present - day Songyang County, Zhejiang Province). The Feng surname is relatively rare today, with a small population but a wide distribution. It can be found in Wuqing in Tianjin, Shangyi and Jingxian in Hebei, Pingyi, Pingdu, Longkou, Changle, and Yutai in Shandong, Wuhai in Inner Mongolia, Tianlin in Guangxi, Longchuan and Hekou in Yunnan, and Hechuan in Sichuan.
