surname Xing; lucky

sprout (丷) + shield/work (干) + earth (土) = lucky, grounded fortune

The character depicts a kind of stable, grounded good fortune — being rooted to the earth rather than cast adrift. The two small strokes (丷) at the top evoke a flourishing or branching quality above the solid foundation of 土.
