Ji, 姬, is a rare surname in China ever since it appeared. Ji 姬 literally means empress. Its originality dates back thousands of years. This surname was originally one of the first emperors' name, and although he had many sons to whom he could have passed the name on to, he only gave the two chosen ones to possess this Ji 姬 surname. Not only this, one of the two sons that possessed this surname became the next emperor and passed this surname to only a few. The other sons all got different names such as Wang, Li, Ding, Yao, Zhang, Bai, and many more.
Emperor's name cannot be used by people other than those who are royalty and only after his approval. Hundreds of years later on, another emperor had 姬 surname, and all those who had this name had to change their name to other than 姬, thus people with this Ji name is scarce.
