'''Xu''' is either of two [[Chinese surname]]s that are [[homograph]]s when [[Romanized]] using their [[Mandarin_Chinese|Mandarin]] pronunciations:

#{{zh|t=徐|p=Xú|w=Hsü<sup>2</sup>|j=Ceoi<sup>4</sup>}}
#{{zh|t=許|s=许|p=Xǔ|w=Hsü<sup>3</sup>|j=Heoi<sup>2</sup>}}

The [[Tone_(linguistics)|tone]]s of these surnames are different in Mandarin, but if the tone [[diacritic]]s are omitted then both surnames would be spelled '''Xu''' in [[pinyin]], and '''Hsü''' in the [[Wade–Giles]] system or '''Hsu''' if the [[Diaeresis (diacritic)|diaeresis]] is also omitted.

==Variations of 許/许 in other Chinese varieties and languages==
In [[Cantonese]], 許/许 is transcribed as '''Heoi''' in [[Jyutping]] and as '''Héui''' in [[Yale_romanization_of_Cantonese|Yale Romanization]]; customary spellings include '''Hui''', '''Hoi''' or '''Hooi'''. 徐 is often transcribed as '''Tsui''', '''T'sui''', '''Choi''', '''Chui''' or even '''Tsua'''.

In [[Southern Min]], 許/许 is transcribed in [[Pe̍h-ōe-jī]] as '''Khó''', in [[Teochew dialect|Teochew]] as '''Kóu''', and customarily spelled '''Koh''', '''Khoh''', '''Khor''', '''Khaw''' or '''Ko'''.

==Variations of 徐 in other Chinese varieties and languages==

In [[Wu Chinese]] including [[Shanghainese]], the surname 徐 is transcribed as '''Zee''', as seen in the historical place name [[Zikawei]] in [[Shanghai]] (Xujiahui in Pinyin). In [[Gan Chinese]], it can be spelled '''Hi''' or '''Hé'''.

In the modern [[Vietnamese language|Vietnamese]], the character 徐 is converted to '''Từ''' while 許 is converted to '''Hứa'''. The [[Hoa people]] overseas Chinese of Vietnam with the surname 許/许 may have it spelled as '''Hái''', or '''Hy''' when immigrating to the [[English-speaking World]], particularly the [[United States]]. Other spellings include '''Hee''' and '''Hu'''.

In [[Japanese language|Japanese]], the surname 徐 is transliterated as '''Omomuro''', and in Sino-Japanese as '''Jo'''. 許 is transliterated as '''Yurusu''', '''Bakari''', or '''Moto''', and in Sino-Japanese as '''Kyo''' or '''Ko'''.

In the [[Yale romanization of Korean]], 徐 is '''Seo''' (서) in [[Hangul]], and 許 is '''Heo''' (허).

==Origin of the surname 徐 Xú==
It is believed that 徐 is one of the branches of the royal house name [[Yíng]], as well as noble [[Manchurian people|Manchurian]] family [[Šumuru]], or [[Xiongnu]] of [[Central Asia]].

Ruomu was one of the two sons of Boyi. Boyi successfully assisted [[Yu the Great]] with resolving the Flood, so the King conferred one of the eight noble tribal names, Yíng, to the family of Boyi; and simultaneously Roumu was appointed as the King of the land of Xú. This was the beginning of the establishment of the state Xú. The state has been reigned over by the royal family for more than a thousand years, and had 44 monarchs. The state of Xú was eliminated by the state of Wú, since then in order to commemorate their ancestral pride, descendants of King Ruo'mu adopted their country's name, Xú, as their surname. Therefore, the surname, Xú, is originated from King Ruo'mu, and it belongs to the noble tribe of Yíng.

==Origin of the surname 許/许 Xǔ==
The surname 許/许 Xǔ has multiple theories regarding its origin.

The most credible one states that the surname Xǔ originated from the feudal state of Xǔ in the area of Xǔchāng, now known as [[Jian'an District]] in [[Xuchang City]],<ref>http://xuchang.gov.cn/</ref> of present-day Henan, during the Zhou Dynasty.

A different theory states that the surname originated with the fabled Xǔ You (许由), a sage in the time of the fabled Emperor Yao, not to be confused with the later another Xǔ You who was a military strategist of the warlord Yuan Shao during the late Han Dynasty period. Xǔ You's descendants carried on the surname of their famed ancestor, thereby establishing Xǔ as a surname. Later on in the history of ancient China, it became popular among scholars of the time to postulate that Xǔ You must have been the ancestor of that feudal lord whose surname was Xǔ.<ref>https://wapbaike.baidu.com/item/%E8%AE%B8%E7%94%B1/2292246</ref>{{better source needed|date=April 2020}}

The posterities with state as surname called Xǔ, were authentic known as Xǔ. In tale of Emperor Yao, Xǔ You posterities surname also called Xǔ. Xǔ by handing down was the person of integrity talented person of Yao and Shun time, lives in Jishan. After many years later, the posterity called this mountain as Xǔ Youshan. More than years ago activity near Yu Yingshui the basin under Jishan.<ref>http://www.gs5000.cn/gs/shenhua/25359.html</ref>
As there are many dialects in Chinese speaking world, there are several spellings of surname Xǔ.
