Taing does not seem to be a common Chinese name (at least where I am at). Some additional information that might help identify the origin of your name "Taing":
What part of China did your ancestors came from?
What dialect of Chinese did they speak? That would determine what "Taing" is translated from.
Where did they migrate to? That would tell us the language that "Taing" is translated to.
How long ago did they leave China?
Is Taing a common name where you are at (besides people that you are related to)?
