Gege (title)
Gege is the Manchurian word for an unmarried daughter. During the Qing Dynasty it was the Manchu style of an imperial-born princess of an emperor. Daughters of the first ranked princes also used the same title.
When a Manchu prince had concubines, the status of the wives are, from highest to lowest: difujin, cefujin and gege. Historically, there were many gege; few ever ascended to the status of cefujin. Only difujin and cefujin names are recorded in the royal family lists of family members.
