Gao You 高誘 was a scholar of the Eastern Han dynasty. He wrote commentaries on the Spring and Autumn Annals and Mencius. He is also the author of the earliest commentary to the Annals of Lü Buwei.

Baxter & Sagart (2014: 265) take the following remarks from his commentary on the Annals of Lü Buwei as evidence of final *-r in the word 殷.

今兖州人謂殷氏皆曰衣
Nowadays the people of Yǎnzhōu 兖州 all pronounce the family name 殷 Yīn [*ʔər] as 衣 Yī [*ʔ(r)əj]”
