It can also be a chinese surname usually in the form: 狄 (Dí). Notably from Emperor Huang Di and Di Renjie, an official of the Tang & Zhou dynasties. It was listed 108th among the Song-era Hundred Family Surnames.
狄 is composed of the radicals for "animal" (犭) and "fire" (火) and was used to describe barbarian tribes north of the original zhongguo.
Its Old Chinese pronunciation has been reconstructed as *lˤek and its Middle Chinese one as Dek.
