### Glyph origin

Historical forms of the character 寧 :
| Shang | Western Zhou | Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) | Liushutong (compiled in Ming) |
| Oracle bone script | Bronze inscriptions | Small seal script | Transcribed ancient scripts |
| | Old Chinese |
| 濘 | *neːs, *neːŋʔ, *neːŋs |
| 獰 | *rnaːŋ |
| 檸 | *rnaːŋʔ |
| 儜 | *rneːŋ |
| 薴 | *rneːŋ |
| 鬡 | *rneːŋ |
| 鑏 | *rneːŋ |
| 嬣 | *rneːŋ |
| 寍 | *neːŋ |
| 寗 | *neːŋs |

| 寧 | *neːŋ |
| 鸋 | *neːŋ, *neːŋs |
| 嚀 | *neːŋ |
| 聹 | *neːŋ, *neːŋʔ |
Oracle bone script: Ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意): 宀 (“house”) + 皿 (“food or wine vessel”) + 丂 (“table (?)”) – contentment. The 心 (“heart”) component was added in bronze inscriptions to yield 寧, and the 丂 component was sometimes omitted to yield 寍.
Shuowen: Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *neːŋ): phonetic 寍 (OC *neːŋ) + semantic 丂 (“speech (?)”).
Note that the simplified form 宁 (zhù) is also a traditional character on its own.

### Etymology 1

Either related to Burmese ညင်း (nyang:, “soft, gentle, quiet”) or connected to Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s/k-niŋ (“heart, mind, brain”) (Schuessler, 2007)
