Origins
Claimed Si-lineage origin
The page proposes that one branch originated from the Si lineage and descendants of the Zeng ruler in the Spring and Autumn period, adopting a surname from the historical event of his killing. It says the surname was first 捝 and later simplified to 打, pronounced dǐng. This is the page's lineage account; the supplied text does not directly document the descendants' surname change in a primary source.

Claimed Oroqen occupational-title origin
The page also claims an Oroqen origin through the Dulara clan: Dulara Xinbao served as Dasheng Zongguan, and his descendants are said to have adopted Dasheng as a surname from that ancestral office, later shortening it to 打 or 杜. In this account, 打 is pronounced dǐng.

Historical Records
Record concerning envoys from Danmeiliu
The page relays Xingshi Kaolüe, which calls 打 a non-Han surname and reportedly cites the Song Shi for the Danmeiliu envoys Daji and Dalie. Another passage on the same page gives the second name as Dala. Because this is a secondary quotation with variant personal names, it is not a verification of the original Song Shi text and does not establish a genealogical link to other 打 lineages.
