Family Name: The character 施 originally means 'to give' or 'to bestow'. The Shi clan originates from the Spring and Autumn Period. According to historical records, the surname Shi comes from the Ji clan of the Lu State. One of the descendants of Boqin, the Duke of Lu, was named Shi Fu, and his descendants adopted the surname Shi. Another theory suggests that the surname originated from the ancient state of Shi (present-day Enshi, Hubei), where the nobles took the state name as their surname.
