After birth, all the children in the old Beijing mansion are named by the respected grandfather in the family, especially the eldest son and grandson, who pay even more attention to it.
In order to find a good name, I looked up the "Book of Changes" and the "Almanac" to see the birth date and horoscopes, and wrote out a dozen name options on rice paper. I then thought about it over and over again, ticking off the ones I didn't like, and finally kept them. That's the child's name.
Therefore, the names of children from wealthy families are generally very grand and full of knowledge, unlike the names of children from small families who are tacky and have no meaning.
After the birth of my child, we followed the practice of the older generation and named it by my grandfather. My family’s surname is relatively rare, the surname is “men”, because it was the girl’s grandfather who calculated her birthday and then looked at it. The almanac was eventually named "Menlu", which means that the door opens to all directions, allowing the child to have talent, education, and wealth in the future.
Although my daughter did not make a big fortune in the end, she still made a small fortune and lived a good life smoothly.
Your name will follow you for a lifetime, so choosing a good name will benefit you for life.
Nowadays, many parents follow each other’s example when naming their children. If other people’s children’s names sound good, they will also let their children be named by that name. Some young people are keen to go to “naming” companies to name their children and spend money. Not to mention, there are more and more people with the same name and surname.
If the elderly at home have cultural background, it is better to let them name their children. After all, the elderly are more knowledgeable and have a deeper explanation of the meaning of some words.
If the elderly in the family are uneducated, the young couple can come up with a name, or the family can brainstorm and everyone writes down the name they want on a piece of paper and everyone discusses it. The name that gets the most approval is the name of the child.
The name can be composed of the father's surname plus the mother's surname; it can be formed by splitting the father's surname; it can also be composed of the two characters before and after an idiom or the two characters in the middle.
Some surnames plus another character are exactly the same phrase. It is also very creative to use a nice phrase as a name.
Whether the child’s name is given by the grandparents or the parents, too many words are used to make the child’s name new and unique, giving people a sense of reverie, a kind of "seeing the name, looking for the person" The impulse is the best.
It’s not a matter of who gets the best. It's a matter of boundaries.
I told my husband at that time that we would have this one child for the rest of our lives, and of course we had to name it ourselves. I would not ask my grandparents to name it.
They had their children. They had several children at that time, and they had fun naming them.
The child's father is a straight man, and he has no interest in these things and has no opinions. Fortunately, my mother-in-law liked this name very much and used it. Grandpa’s choice is too old-fashioned. [Laughs]
I will not care about these things about my grandson in the future. I will only provide the help I can.
Don’t worry about your grandparents! [picking your nose][picking your nose][picking your nose]
It’s not good to give your nickname to your grandparents, or your parents to give your nickname
It’s better to let others do it.
< p> My son's name was given by his grandfather. My husband's family is Mongolian. The child's grandfather named his son Hasbagan and Yuzhu according to Mongolian custom.
