- Yi Sun-sin (posthumous name "Chungmu")
Often immediate ancestors of the first emperor of a dynasty were typically given posthumous names even though they themselves were not royalty. For example:
- Sima Zhao, the Prince of Jin and effective ruler in Wei in the Three Kingdoms period, who was the father of the eventual first emperor of Jin Dynasty Sima Yan (Emperor Wu of Jin). Even though he was never emperor, Sima Zhao was given the posthumous name of Emperor Wen of Jin.
An exception to insignificant ancestor-naming is Lao Zi, the claimed ancestor of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, was named posthumously (see the "Lao Zi" article). He has been culturally important after death.
