Chia is a surname. It is a Latin-alphabet spelling of various Chinese surnames, as well as an Italian surname.

Statistics

Chia was the 20th-most common Chinese surname in Singapore as of 1997 (ranked by English spelling, rather than by Chinese characters). Roughly 22,600 people, or 0.9% of the Chinese Singaporean population at the time, bore the surname Chia.[1] Among respondents to the 2000 United States Census, Chia was the 856th-most common surname among Asian Pacific Americans, and 17,530th-most common overall, with 1,481 bearers (72.78% of whom identified as Asian/Pacific Islander).[2] In Italy, 72 families bore the surname Chia, with more than half located in Sardinia.[3]

Origins

Chia may be a spelling of a number of Chinese surnames, based on different varieties of Chinese, listed below by their romanisation in Mandarin pinyin:

  • Jia (various characters and tones), all spelled Chia in the Wade–Giles romanisation of Mandarin used before the development of pinyin, and still widespread in Taiwan.[4]
    • Jiā ({{linktext|lang=zh|家}}; IPA: /t͡ɕia⁵⁵/)[5]
    • Jiá ({{linktext|lang=zh|郟}}; IPA: /t͡ɕia³⁵/), which originated as a toponymic surname.[5]
    • Jiǎ ({{linktext|lang=zh|賈}}; IPA: /t͡ɕia²¹⁴/), which also originated as a toponymic surname referring to the {{ill|State of Jia|zh|賈國}}, one of the ancient Chinese states, a feudal territory granted to a son of Shu Yu of Tang, located in modern-day Linfen, Shanxi.[5]
    • Jiǎ ({{linktext|lang=zh|甲}}; IPA: /t͡ɕia²¹⁴/), which originated as a shortening of an ancient toponymic surname Jiǎfù ({{linktext|lang=zh|pref=:zh:|甲父}}).[5]
  • Xiè ({{linktext|lang=zh|謝}}), spelled Chia based on its pronunciation in various Southern Min dialects, including:[6]
    • Hokkien (Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Chiā; IPA: /t͡ɕia³³/)
    • Teochew (Peng'im: Zia7; IPA: /t͡sia¹¹/)[7]
  • Chē ({{linktext|lang=zh|車}}), spelled Chia based on its pronunciation in various Southern Min dialects, including:[8]
    • Hokkien (POJ: Chhia, IPA: /t͡ɕʰia⁴⁴/)
    • Teochew (Peng'im: Cia1; IPA: /t͡sʰia³³/)[9]

It is also an Italian toponymic surname referring to Chia, Province of South Sardinia. That toponym may have originated from a Phoenician word for "valley".[10]
