Basic meaning
It is said that in ancient times, babies were named by their fathers when they were three months old. This is the origin of the "name" of the ancients. In fact, among the Chinese people, some areas still retain the custom of naming babies when they are one month old. However, the right to name is no longer held by the father alone, but by the baby's relatives.
What’s interesting is that in ancient times, when Han boys reached the age of 20, they had to hold a ceremony of “tying their hair and crowning them” to show that they were adults. At this time, they had to take their names. When a girl reaches the age of 15, she must hold a ceremony of "tying her hair and adding a knot" to show that she is ready to get married. At this time, she also needs to pick her name. It can be seen that in ancient times, both men and women had their own prefixes. For example, the modern female revolutionary Qiu Jin had the prefix Xuanqing.
So is there any connection between the names and characters of ancient people? It is generally believed that there is a meaningful connection between the names and characters of ancient people. One situation is when the name and character have the same or similar meaning. For example, Qu Yuan, whose name was Ping and whose courtesy name was Yuan. ("Erya Shidi": "Guangping said Yuan.") Another example is Yue Fei, whose courtesy name is Pengju.
And "Pengju" means the great roc spreading its wings and flying high. Another situation is when the name and the word have opposite meanings. For example, Zeng Dian has the character Xi. ("Shuowen": "Dian means little black." And "Xi means white.") Of course, with the development of history, the semantics of many words have changed, and it is difficult to see the semantic connection between ancient people's names and characters. come out.
However, as long as you are a thoughtful person, there are still many sages whose names and characters can be tasted.
