Family Name: The surname 邵 originates from the Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BCE), tracing its roots to Duke Shao, also known as Duke Shi, who was a son of King Wen of Zhou and a brother of King Wu of Zhou. His descendants adopted the surname 召 ('Shào'), which later evolved into 邵 by adding the 邑 (yì) radical to differentiate it from the 召 (zhào) surname.
Given Name: Pleasing to the ear, smooth and rhythmic, symbolizing openness, clarity, and a bright, hopeful future.
