Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Infobox surname
Hui is a surname. It is the Hanyu Pinyin spelling of two Chinese surnames (Шаблон:Linktext and Шаблон:Linktext), as well as a variant spelling of two others (Шаблон:Linktext Xǔ and Шаблон:Linktext Fèi).
Origins
Surname Huì (惠)
The Chinese character used to write this surname means "favour" or "benefit". It is the 204th surname in the traditional poem Hundred Family Surnames. The Mingxian Shizu Yanxing Leigao[1] section of the Siku Quanshu encyclopedia states that this surname was adopted from the posthumous name of King Hui of Zhou (676–651 BC). The descendants who adopted the surname settled in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. During the Qing Dynasty, some Manchu people also adopted this surname.[2]
In Sino-Korean pronunciation, this character is read Hye. It is not used as a surname in modern Korea, but can be found as an element of Korean given names.[3][4] In Sino-Vietnamese pronunciation, it is read Huệ.[5]
Surname Huí (回)
The Chinese character used to write this surname means "return". It does not appear in Hundred Family Surnames. Sources published during the Song dynasty, including the Guangyun dictionary, Xingjie,[6] the section "Given Names Used as Surnames" (Шаблон:Lang) in the Tongzhi encyclopedia, and Шаблон:Ill, state three origins for this surname:[7][8]
- It was originally the personal name of Fang Hui (Шаблон:Lang), an official who served under Emperor Yao
- It was originally the personal name of Wu Hui (Шаблон:Lang), a son of the legendary Zhurong. Wu Hui's son Sun later took Hui as his surname.
- It is found as a surname among the Hui people (whose ethnonym is written with the same character). However, the sources do not explain its origin.
In Sino-Korean pronunciation, this character is read Hoe. It is not used as a surname in modern Korea, and only rarely as an element of given names.[3][4] In Sino-Vietnamese pronunciation, it is read Hồi.[9]

Hui may be the spelling of two other Chinese surnames, based on their pronunciation in different varieties of Chinese; they are listed below by their spelling in Hanyu Pinyin, which reflects the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation:[8]
- Xǔ (Шаблон:Zh), spelled Hui based on its Cantonese pronunciation (Шаблон:Zh)
- Fèi (Шаблон:Zh), spelled Hui based on its pronunciation in various Southern Min dialects, e.g. Teochew (Peng'im: Шаблон:Lang; IPA: Шаблон:IPA)[10]
