If we look at the names of the ancients now, we will find that their names sound very poetic. At the same time, we can see the deep wishes of the elders to the younger generation from the names, and we can also see the expectations of the elders to the younger generation from the names. Therefore, the determination of the name is to look at the genealogy, and the other is to quote poetry to get the name. Although people today have such expectations, their names are straightforward, not as subtle as those of the ancients. For example, in the 1960s, many people expressed their support for national construction in the name of founding the country and patriotism.
The ancients took names according to genealogy, and the most important thing was to distinguish generations. In ancient times, a strong family had many children, which were divided into direct line and collateral line. When something needs to be discussed, you can distinguish which generation you are according to your name and the distance between you and yourself, and infer whether you should help or please them. It can be said that naming after genealogy in ancient times is the greatest function. Now, with the development of society, the concept of clan is not so strong, and because of the popularity of network culture, more and more people pursue fashion and catchiness when choosing names, instead of taking names according to genealogy.
In addition, many people love idolization now, so in order to express their love for stars, the names given to children are also included. From the name, we can see the popular culture at that time and the imprint left by the times.
