Lao Dan 老聃 (Pronounced fanqie 塔甘. As for Lao Dan, he is Laozi. The Shiji says: "His surname was Li, his given name was Er, and he was the Archivist of the Zhou; the Guoyu calls him Boyang, and he is also called Lao Dan." The Shuowen says: "Dan 聃 means long ears; it has the 'ear' radical and the phonetic component ran 冉; it is also written as 𨈭." Collected editions writing it with the 'body' radical as 𨈜 is a popular vulgar character).
