The Jie surname is pronounced jié. It is currently uncommon, is a Han Chinese surname, and is distributed in Weichang, Hebei; Taiyuan, Shanxi; Tacheng, Xinjiang; Laohekou, Hubei; Qingliu, Fujian; Longchuan, Yunnan; and Tongjiang and Changshou, Sichuan.
The origin of the Jie surname is unspecified. One account considers it possibly identical with the Jie surname written 桀; another says 杰 is the colloquial simplified form of 傑 or may derive from a change by the 傑 family.
The surname Jie is recorded in Xinbian Qianjiaxing, Zhongguo Xingshi Daquan, and Zhongguo Xingshi Ji; Zhongguo Xingshi Daquan describes it as an extremely rare surname.
A Jie lineage centered in Jinkui Village, Wenchang Town, Cangxi County, Sichuan, traces its ancestral origin to Macheng, Xiaogan, Hubei, and settled in Sichuan during the late Ming migration known as Huguang filling Sichuan.
After simplification, 杰 and 傑 are difficult to distinguish, and the records also list the surname as 杰（傑）; the specific origin of the Jie surname remains unclear.
