Xian (Chinese: 咸) is a Chinese surname. Its romanizations in Cantonese and Old Chinese are Haam and Ham or Hahm respectively.

It could refer to the surname 冼 which was chosen to replace the rare character surname Shan which cannot be displayed on a computer with normal coding. Two hundred people from Gaozhuang Village in Mudan District, Heze, Shandong were affected although people who already registered with their original name were allowed to keep it.[citation needed]
