Paying no attention to the meaning of words in naming: it is meaningless in reading.
Paying attention to the meaning of words is a traditional custom of Chinese people in naming. In other words, in terms of customs, Chinese people mainly choose names based on literal meanings, that is, based on their different aesthetic concepts, different wishes and pursuits, and different personalities and hobbies, they choose a name with good literal meanings. This means that paying attention to the meaning of the words is the minimum requirement for choosing a good name. Some names are not created through careful consideration, repeated deliberation, and careful selection of words and phrases, but are instead randomly put together with a few words. The name "Haza" is like a "platter", and it has the following characteristics:
First, the central meaning is unclear;
Second, the combination of words is not harmonious;
p>
Third, there are contradictions and confusions between words. If the relationship is unclear, it will lead to confusion in thinking. This is a common problem with "hash" names. Naming something with a "hash" is extremely careless and serious, and the effect will naturally not be good. When choosing a name, you need to spend more energy and time, take it seriously, and think about it repeatedly to achieve good results.
Usually when we say that the meaning of the name should be clear, it means that it should be easy to understand, so that people can know what it means at a glance. It does not mean that the meaning of the name should be clear. Words can be vulgar.
If you name your child "Zhijian", it naturally means that you hope that your child will have a strong will in the future and become a person who is independent and courageous. If you name your child "Xiuli", you also hope that the child will grow up to be delicate and beautiful, and become a dignified and steady woman in the future.
The so-called meaning of a name includes two aspects. The first is the original meaning of the name, which is the real meaning. Most of this meaning includes the namer's hopes and wishes for the named person, and may also include the namer's personality traits and hobbies; on the other hand, the literal meaning of the name also includes metaphorical meaning, which is to use other things to express the original meaning. In summary, when choosing a name that pays attention to the meaning of the word, you should pay attention to the following two points:
(1) Do not give a name that is too tacky
The name is a tool for people to communicate with each other, and the name is In many cases, it often constitutes the first impression. Because of this, when naming, you should try to avoid words and meanings that are too vulgar and straightforward. The main reasons for straightforwardness are as follows:
① A single-character name is combined with a surname to form a common word or phrase, which only expresses a single content. Such as Huangshan, Full Moon, Longmen, Method, Zhengzong, Chenzhu, Arhat, King Kong, etc.
② A two-character name, but the phrase formed by the name only expresses a superficial and simple meaning, and the content still does not get rid of the singularity. Such as Xiang Ming, Zhang Jingli, Chen Jianshe, Deng Wenshi, Wang Xiaoshu, Xu Aer, He Daqiao, Zhu Weixing, etc.
③Some people take naming very casually and like to use ready-made words. If it is based on a surname, the name should be: Gaoshan, Plateau, Gaofeng, ***, Gaoming, Gaoxing, etc.
④ Some people regard naming as like queuing up to buy something, thinking that the most popular ones are good ones. So there are: Ding Bing, Fang Bing, Li Bing, Zhu Bing, Xu Bing, Han Bing; Baiyun, Zhu Yun, Huang Yun, Tang Yun, Long Yun, etc.
⑤ Some people lack proper common sense and give inappropriate names, such as Mo Gui, Bai Chi, Sha Gua, Zhu Tou, etc.
To overcome the problem of straightforwardness, it is necessary to diversify the semantics of the name, that is, to be multidirectional or multidimensional, and to complicate the word structure that constitutes the name, or to include the surname. In the word combination, the three characters form separate words, and each character represents a different meaning, forming a multi-layered relationship.
The name is different from the nickname. The real name must be reported to the household registration office after the child is born and must be used for a lifetime. Unless the conditions specified in the regulations for changing the real name are met, the name is generally not allowed to be changed at will. Therefore, you must be careful when naming your child to avoid regrets and unnecessary trouble.
(2) The combination of the surname and the given name should take into account the literal meaning.
Pay attention to the literal meaning when naming. This is not just about the literal meaning of the name, but actually the combination of the literal meanings of the surname and the given name.
For example: the name "Bai Rubing" is the best combination of surname and first name in terms of meaning. As a surname, the word "白" has no meaning, but when combined with "ice", it forms the elegant, profound and perfect meaning of "as white as ice". When I hear this name, I feel like it. It will feel like a spiritual enjoyment. On the other hand, if you do not consider the combination of surname and first name in terms of meaning, you may make mistakes when naming. The meaning of the name "Biwen" is not bad, but when combined with the surname "Hu", it means "making things up", which sounds very unpleasant. In addition, names such as Hu Lai, Ma Hu, Wu Cai, etc. did not take into account the combination of surname and given name in terms of meaning. Just like the walls in architecture are composed of hollows and solids, the most ingenious coordination between the surname and the first name can be achieved, which is not only novel in structural level, but also profound in meaning.
