A person's name affects his or her character, development and even destiny to some extent. A good name probably needs to meet the following criteria:
1. Catchyness is the first priority. When we go to kindergartens and look through their rosters, we can see more and more uncommon names or names with three or four characters. At first glance, one might think that there are so many parents with compound surnames, and one might think that one’s Chinese language skills have deteriorated. However, upon closer inspection, it turns out that many parents use more and more characters in their names in order to reduce the probability of duplicate names and gain individuality. The names are becoming more and more complex and uncommon, and many parents even collect some unpopular ancient characters to use as their children's names. A name is a symbol by which a person is called by others. A good name must be understandable and understandable by others. A catchy name is a good name. You should also pay attention to the yin, yang, ping, up and down tones. Try to avoid choosing a name with a soft tone. In conjunction with the surname, choose a surname that ends with a down tone, which is generally louder.
2. It must have a good meaning. The Chinese language and culture are extensive and profound, and different words represent different meanings. Choosing a name with profound meaning not only represents the hopes and blessings of the elders for the child, but also reflects the family tradition and the good background of the scholarly family to a certain extent. Moreover, as the child gets used to the name he is called, his inner self-suggestion will become stronger and stronger. For example, girls who are called "Jing", "Rou", and "Ning" are generally not too rude, and they will internalize their words and deeds in study, work or life; for example, choose "Sheng", "Ning" Boys with names such as "Rui" and "Qiang" are generally more outgoing and cheerful.
3. Parents who pay more attention to the birth date, yin and yang and the five elements can consider this aspect more when naming their children. The name should match the birth date of the person, and these should be calculated before choosing the name, and the five elements should also be considered. Generally speaking, surnames derived from ancestors are generally not easily changed, and the eight characters and five elements of the given name need to match the eight characters and five elements of the surname to achieve the effect of complementing each other and bringing good luck. In this regard, you can find professionals to calculate, or you can study some knowledge of the Book of Changes and other aspects on your own to choose a name.
In short, a name is just a symbol, but the cultivation, development and shaping of the person itself is the most critical. Here, I wish everyone can achieve the expectations of their elders when naming them.
