Fu Chang is Chinese in Origin.

Fu Chang is a Mandarin Chinese compound given name built from auspicious morphemes. In its most common form 福昌 (Pinyin Fú Chāng), it combines “fú” (blessing, good fortune) with “chāng” (prosperous, flourishing), conveying “blessed prosperity” or “flourishing good fortune.” Alternative character pairings slightly shift the meaning, such as 富昌 (“abundant wealth, thriving”), 福常 (“blessed and constant”), or 福长/長 (“blessed and long‑lasting”).

Such auspicious compounds were popular male names across late imperial and Republican China and still appear today, though modern usage can be unisex. Romanized variants include Fuchang and Fu-chang, Wade–Giles Fu-ch’ang, and Cantonese Fūk Chēung (Jyutping Fuk1 Coeng1), often spelled Fook Cheung/Cheong. Because several hanzi fit Fu and Chang, official records specify the characters to pin down meaning; in the diaspora the name may also appear as the single given name Fuchang.
