What 嵊 means

嵊 appears in Chinese place names. The Song-era dictionary Guangyun, arranged by rhyme (similar ending sounds), records it as a mountain name in 剡 county.

During the Song period, after the rebellion led by Fang La, the county name changed from 剡 to 嵊. A local gazetteer, a record of the region, says 剡 looked like “two fires and a knife,” an ominous reading.
