First of all, his most famous name, Zhu Yuanzhang, was invented by Zhu Yuanzhang himself when he joined the rebel army in the uprising. The moral of his name is to destroy Yuan, because Zhu Yuanzhang thought he would be an emperor in the future when he was a child, which shows Zhu Yuanzhang's foresight. The second is that Zhu Yuanzhang was called Zhu Chongba when he was a child. In fact, this question has been answered in some reports and books. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was born in the Yuan Dynasty, a Mongolian dynasty, so there were many cultural customs different from those of the Han nationality. At that time, there was a rule that the children of ordinary families did not deserve their own names, and they needed to be added and subtracted by the age of their parents. However, according to this statement, Zhu Yuanzhang's parents are not eight years old, but 9 1 year old, so this statement was rejected.
So how did Zhu Chongba get his name? Analyze the name of Zhu Yuanzhang's father. Zhu Yuanzhang's father is Zhu, and they are all named after numbers. The names of Zhu Yuanzhang's brothers are: the eldest Zhu Chongsi, the second Zhu, the third Zhu Chongqi and the fourth Zhu Chongba. Later, it was explained that Zhu Yuanzhang's father ranked fourth in the family, because Zhu Wusi named his children and added them to his own ranking, so Zhu Yuanzhang ranked fourth, but he was called Zhu Chongba.
