The Tan family originated in the ancient Tan country 2,700 years ago. 2,700 years ago, the kingdom of Gutan was captured by the descendants of Huangdi (formerly known as Gongsun, later renamed Ji, named Xuanyuan), the ancestor of China, 5,000 years ago. BC 1046, when Zhou Wuwang defeated Zhou Wang in the Shang Dynasty and was rebuilt as the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, he helped Zhou Wuwang to destroy the emperor, with great merits. This is the origin of Tan State in the ancient history of China.
At first, the kingdom of Gutan was just a small country among many vassal States. Due to its superior geographical location, fertile land and developed commercial relations, with the efforts of emperors in past dynasties, the tiny Tan State soon became a "pearl" in the east of ancient China. It is precisely because of the strategic position of the ancient Tan Kingdom that commerce, trade, culture and education are increasingly prosperous. Since then, many vassal States around the ancient Danguo have long had secret attempts to annex the Danguo. In 684 BC, Qi, a powerful country among the vassal states, sent ministers to Tan, refused to obey, immediately mobilized troops to attack, and brutally burned and killed the small ancient Tan. Within a few days, the Oriental Pearl with a glorious history of 380 years, the capital of the ancient Tan State, was destroyed into ruins. He refused to become the first15th monarch of the conquered nation, Tan Jizi Li Xian. Faced with a powerful enemy, he was forced to bid farewell to the ancestors of the ancient kingdom in tears, and led the remaining soldiers and civilians and the young son Ji/Ji/Ji Qiyang to escape from the city at midnight and go into exile in the then Juguo (now Juxian County, Shandong Province). In order not to forget the national humiliation and miss his motherland forever, Guo Junji of Gu Tan Guo Di15th generation immediately called on all the descendants of Gu Tan with her surname and other surnames, and changed Tan's name to Tan forever. This is the origin of Tan's surname. Later, Tan's descendants all honored the eldest son Ji of the fifteenth monarch Ji of the former ancient Tan State as the ancestor of Tan's surname after Tan's national subjugation. After the national subjugation of Gu Tan, everyone called the Tan family the authentic Tan family. The surname of Ji before the national subjugation of the ancient Tan State, and the surname of Yan or Yu Tan or other surnames before the surname of Ji are collectively referred to as the surname of Gu Tan or the surname of blood Tan.
When the ancient Tan Guogang was founded, Ji was named the monarch of the vassal Tan Guozhi, and the ancestor of the ancient Tan Guozhi was the monarch of the ancient Tan Guozhi and all the descendants of the moved vassal Tan Guozhi, and the following unified naming genealogy was standardized:
As far as China is concerned, there are four seasons, the sun, the moon, grass, flowers, flowers, sages, the world, and treasures, star worship, purity, richness and time.
Kang Xiangcheng, a native of Jiyang, is the son of Chongrong, and Liang Chenghao is the successor of Guangning Wei, who is a moral person.
The industry is wide and diligent, and there is no name to send a dragon water book to settle down. China's meaning can be kept in Wujin Hongquan, filial piety and integrity, and Ren Dong wins the full text.
Wei Yi thought of Wan Dai, Yuan Dynasty, Jade Dynasty, Guangyou Tian Shaojing, Shan Xianting, Chunzhengshi, Heaven and Earth, and Yongding Kangning to pray.

The above-mentioned unified naming word generation spectrum, with a total of 164 words, specifically standardized the generation of naming words in Gutanzhou 164 generations. The words in the named genealogy are basically different, and each sentence is very poetic. According to the names of books named by the Ministry, and according to the general law that China people get married and have children between the ages of 18 and 25, the average age is calculated to be 2 1, which is enough for the ancient Tan Kingdom and its descendants to use for 3280 years. It has been 3059 years since the ancient Tan was founded in 1046 BC, and now it is 20 13 years. The original unified named word spectrum of Tan ancestors can still be 22 1 year.
It is impossible to verify whether the original unified name genealogy of the ancient Tan State originated from the ancestors of the Tan State, except that it was handed down by the ancestors of the Tan family in every way. The pedigree of this word has been verified from the first generation to the fifteenth generation, and the naming words used in each generation are consistent with each other. After the national subjugation of Gu Tan, the naming characters used by each generation, from Tan, who thought his surname was the first generation, to Tan, who moved to Xiangxiang, Hunan in the 73rd generation, were also consistent from generation to generation. The naming method of its generation is basically two specifications: first, surname+generation+first name; One is surname+first name+word generation.
The ancestors of Gutan Kingdom standardized the uniformly named word generation genealogy for the descendants of Gutan Kingdom. In the 380-year period of the ancient Tan Kingdom, * * * carried out 15 generations. From the first generation to the fifteenth generation, the word they used was: "There are four seasons in the state, and the sun, the moon and the grass grow in bloom."
After the demise of the ancient country in 684 BC, in order to commemorate the motherland, the name of the country was permanently changed to the surname of Tan, and the descendants of Tan still inherited and carried out according to the unified family tree of the ancient country's ancestors. On the day when Gu Tan moved to China, that is, from Tan, who took the country as his surname, to Tan, who took the fifteenth generation, the word they used was: Qi Zhan Yi De Bao rushed to the Spring and Wei Dynasties. From the16th generation Tan Shiying, who moved from the ancient giant country to Taiyuan, Shanxi, to the 20th generation Tan Dachang, they all used the word generation: time code Jiyang University. From the twenty-first generation Tan Yucheng who moved from Taiyuan, Shanxi Province to Hongnong, Henan Province to the thirty-third generation Tan Xiangling, they used the word generation: Yu Zhangxiang Kangcheng is Xiang Ming's son. From the thirty-fourth generation of Tan Chongde who moved from Hongnong, Henan Province to Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, to the thirty-eighth generation of Tan Chenggong, they used the word generation: Chong Rong Liang Xi Cheng. From the thirty-ninth generation of Tan Hao who moved from Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province to Taihe, Jiangxi Province, to the sixty-third generation of Tan Keji, the word generation they used was: "Haoguang Ningwei is the successor, Jingqing Debing's Ye Guang Qin Wei has no name, and he sent a dragon to settle down." From the sixty-fourth generation, they moved from Taihe, Jiangxi Province to TanYongzhi, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, and to Tan Yi Palace, the sixty-seventh generation, they used the word "Book of Hua Yi". The 68-year-old Tan Ke moved from Nanjing, Jiangsu Province to Chaling, Hunan Province, and went to the 7th1generation Tan Jin Po. The pronoun they use is: keep Wujin. From 72-year-old Tan Hongmiao from Chaling, Hunan Province to 73-year-old Tan, they all used the word "red fist".
Somehow, Tan moved from Chaling, Hunan Province to Xiangxiang, Hunan Province, and the original unified naming genealogy standardized by the ancestors of the ancient Tan country was interrupted in the seventh and third generations. In the eighteenth generation, from the seventy-fourth generation to the ninety-first generation, Tan changed his own name. Because of their free naming, there is no doubt that the Tan family moved to Xiangxiang. With the increasing number of descendants, they are also confused about the generational relationship between the same family. In this case, our ancestors of this family in Xiangxiang once again standardized the following genealogy of the family in Xiangxiang:
Literature became a symbol of prosperity, and Zhao Wei inspired the family to bring prosperity to the world. He always established clan alliances, showed courtesy and righteousness, became famous in poetry and books, and was faithful in words and deeds.
Make peace with Chyi Yu, respect the original foundation, open the shade and benefit glory, seek the swallow wing in Jintang, and celebrate with Britain.
The unified genealogy of Xiangxiang branch was implemented from the 92nd generation of Tan Wenxun who moved into Xiangxiang branch. The descendants of this tribe who moved to Xiangxiang all named their names according to this unified genealogy. Tan, who moved to Hengpu Branch in Xiangxiang, has now multiplied to 108 generations. From Tan Wenxun of the 92nd generation to Tan Yunhui of the 108th generation who was born soon, his/her word generation is: "Wencheng, Zhao Weizhen's family business, Anbang and Yongxing the world."
In other words, the Tan family has a unified genealogy of naming characters. Perhaps because of war, natural disasters, population increase and other reasons, Tan's descendants had to migrate to all parts of the motherland and the world in order to survive and develop. After the migration, due to the long-term isolation of various places, we lost contact over time, and the later, the more we could not know that there was a "Zi Dai Pu" named by Tan. In this case, branches living in different places have to standardize their own genealogy, while branches in some places have their own free names. With the passage of time and the increase of Tan descendants, many life names appeared in the Tan family, and almost all branches of the Tan family had their own life names. Moreover, the descendants of the Tan family who lived in the same area named the Tan family in different generations. Therefore, when the descendants of the Tan family interact with each other in the same area, they can only confirm that they are all descendants of the Tan family, but can't confirm who should be the elders and descendants of the Tan family.
In view of the above-mentioned confusion in the naming of Tan's descendants, how to properly solve it? Some people say that a unified genealogy of Tan's family names should be re-standardized, so that all the descendants of Tan's family can be named in accordance with the new standardized genealogy from the beginning. Although this can unify the generations of the Tan family, it cannot reasonably solve the problem of word generation changes of many Tan's descendants and the generation connection of the Tan family from ancient times to the present. An ideal measure should be to take the genealogy of original Tan unified naming words, which was standardized by the ancient (consanguineous) ancestors of the original Tan and inherited and implemented by the original Tan authentic ancestors, and calculate the algebra that everyone should locate in the original Tan authentic lineage by naming the descendants of each branch, and then change it to the original Tan unified naming word generation. How to change! For the branch of Tan who moved to Xiangxiang, the ancestors of Tan were named according to the unified name spectrum of the original Tan family standard from Tan Dynasty to Tan Dynasty. Named figures handed down from generation to generation include: "Qi Zhanyi, Bao Chong, Ji Yang, Cheng Nailiang Xi, Cheng Hao Guangning Wei, the inheritor of the classic, and Ye Guangwei, the German soldier." From the 74th generation to the 9 1 generation, Tan and * * * were counted as eighteen generations, but somehow the unified naming convention was broken and they were named independently. The word generation of these eighteen generations should be: "filial piety, talent, benevolence and east." From Tan Wenxun of the 92nd generation to Tan Yunhui of the108th generation born now, there are17th generations. The word generation of Zhan Tao should be: Tian Shaojing, Shan Xianting, Chunzhengshi, Tiandi and Yongdingkang. I am an authentic descendant of Tanjia 105 generation. In the genealogy of Xiangxiang unified name, its name was Tan, which was later changed to the original ancient Tan Guobiao unified name genealogy, and its name should be changed to Tan Hexi.
This method can not only inherit the Tan family's inheritance from ancient times to the present, but also make most Tan family's descendants avoid the possible intergenerational disorder in the reform. The key to adopting the above method is whether the descendants of each branch of the Tan family can find their own generation positioning algebra in the authentic generation of the Tan family from the genealogy data of each branch.
The above is my superficial view on how to solve the confusion of Tan's existing name generation. Whether it is desirable or not is only for the reference and discussion of Tan's clan.
