Why learn surnames through games?
The Hundred Family Surnames, or 百家姓, is an ancient list that starts with 赵、钱、孙、李 and introduces the most common family names in China. Playing with these characters makes pronunciation and meaning easier to remember: each tile carries a real surname, its pinyin, and a translation.
Use the 100 surnames directory for the full history of every name, or try the Chinese Name Generator to build a complete name.
