Some children are named according to their birth date, some are named according to the meaning of the name, and some are named according to novels. I once had a college classmate who named his child because he had read a novel and thought the name of the protagonist in the novel was very nice, so he named his child the same name. For example, many children nowadays are named Yuchen, Mingxuan, Haoxuan, Siqi, etc. These are all names based on novels.
I remember when I was in college, there was a classmate named Xu. His father named him "Kezi", which means "Licensing". Because his father was doing business at that time and needed a license, but the license was still delayed, so he named his child this name in a hurry, hoping that the license would be issued quickly.
Later, our classmates all teased him, saying that his name was too random. So it can be seen that some parents name their children this way. On a whim, they gave the child a name that sounded interesting.
I always name my children according to their birth date and horoscope. Mainly because I am superstitious and hope that my child will have good luck in life, so I measured his horoscope and then named him according to the missing five elements. name.
Each character can be understood according to the meaning of the five elements. For example, the five elements of characters like morning and city belong to earth; the five elements of characters like Yan and Li belong to fire; and the five elements of characters like miao The five elements of characters such as , 清, and 清 belong to water; the five elements of characters such as auspicious and auspicious belong to metal; and finally, the five elements of characters such as 林 and 林 belong to wood.
The horoscope talks about making up for what is missing. The best horoscope is the one with the five elements. If your child's birth date lacks wood, then the name should be something like sen or lin. If you are short of water, you should name it with characters like Miao and Qing; if you are short of gold, you should name it with characters that belong to the five elements of gold.
Furthermore, the Five Elements talk about suppressing the strong and supporting the weak. If one character in your horoscope is strong, don’t use another character with the same Five Elements. Of course, naming according to the five elements and eight characters is mainly a kind of beautiful hope and meaning.
