As a given name for a geography entity, a resident settlement and a district in people's social life, Proper name of a place which is a special linguistic token and a historical mark of human activity, possesses distinctive regionalism and nationalism. Zhuang ethic group settling in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous Region, a minority with long history and brilliant culture, has developed its own ethic language from the ancient time, which has formed its own linguistic system of phonology, lexicology and syntax. Due to the differences in the spoken language, natural environment of settlement, production and activity, culture and psychology, social history and custom from the other ethnic groups, Zhuang ethnic group distinguishes itself in its showy ethnic characteristic in the way of naming its places and the connotation of the proper name of a place. In the Zhuang-spoken areas, have considerable elements of the ancient Yue nationality or the ancient language of Zhuang been retained. With the south migration of Han nationality, more Han culture has been brought to the Southyue nationality since Qing Dynasty and Han Dynasty. Zhuang culture and Han culture have eventually blended together, reflecting the contact, influence and blending between two different languages on the place's proper names of the Zhuang-spoken areas, This thesis tries to analyze the connotation and changing of the proper name of a place in the Zhuang-spoken areas from the angle of linguistics toponymy, history and culture, thus fully understanding the influence of Han on the Zhuang ethnic group in politics, economy, culture, productive technology, social development, district exploitation, cultural ideology and other aspects, hence investigating the historical course and the developing regularity of Zhuang-Han blending and Zhuang district exploitation, so as to probe the new type of culture ideology of the Zhuang society and the new type of Zhuang culture from the blending of two cultures.
