Trương is Vietnamese in Origin.
Trương is a Vietnamese name of Sino-Vietnamese origin, corresponding to the Chinese character 張 (Zhang). It carries senses of "to stretch, expand, or display," and by extension denotes a "bow" in archery - ideas that can suggest growth, openness, and readiness. While primarily a family name in Vietnam, it is occasionally adopted as a given name in contemporary and diasporic contexts and is generally considered unisex.
Widespread as a surname, Trương is borne by figures such as scholar-official Trương Hán Siêu, anti-colonial leader Trương Định, and statesman Trương Tấn Sang. The orthographic variant without diacritics is Truong. Cross-linguistic cognates and close equivalents include Zhang (Mandarin), Chang (Wade-Giles), Cheung (Cantonese), Jang (Korean 장), Chō (Japanese 張), and Teo/Teoh (Hokkien/Teochew). Do not confuse with related Vietnamese surnames Trang (莊) or Chương (章), which represent different Chinese roots and meanings.
