Etymology

[edit]

Borrowed from Middle Mongol ᠴᠢᠩᠭᠢᠰ
ᠬᠠᠭᠠᠨ
(činggis qaɣan).

Note Genghis Khan was originally referred to as 成吉思皇帝 (literally “Emperor Genghis”). The name is first attested in 1228 in many works before late Qing dynasty, including Travels to the West of Qiu Chang Chun, 佛祖歷代通載 [1341], History of Yuan [1370], Gujin Tushu Jicheng [1725], etc..

The name 成吉思汗 (Chéngjísīhán, literally “Genghis Khan”) is attested in some Qing dynasty texts included in Siku Quanshu. It is also attested in the works of late Qing, including Illustrated Treatise on the Maritime Kingdoms [1841] and 前蒙古紀事本末 [1904]. It has become the conventional way to refer to Genghis Khan.
