Etymology
Kanji in this term
殷
いん
Hyōgaiji
kan’on

The senses “Shang dynasty” and “prosperous” are from Middle Chinese 殷 (MC ʔɨn), corresponding to modern Mandarin yīn and Cantonese jan1. The sense “rumbling” corresponds to modern Mandarin yǐn and Cantonese jan2.

The kan'on pronunciation, so likely a later borrowing.
