A brief discussion on naming culture
"It is better to give a son a name than to give him a thousand pieces of gold." This traditional cultural concept has been adopted by more and more families in the current society in recent years. Accepted and valued. Moreover, it has become a traditional social and cultural fashion for young parents to spend money to "plan a name" for their newborn baby. Analyzing from the perspective of popular trends, the “name” culture has three obvious expansions.
One is: the "naming" culture became popular in cities and gradually expanded to rural areas.
The second is: the "naming" culture is accepted by the educated working class of society and gradually expands to ordinary people.
The three are: "naming" culture, which thrives among the people and gradually expands to a social and public cultural platform.
In view of the current "naming" culture, there is a hard-won social fashion space. In order to better protect, inherit and develop the "name" culture, as a "name" "Cultural enthusiasts and disseminators of "name" culture would like to discuss "name" culture with colleagues who are engaged in "name" culture regarding issues related to the popularity and development of "name" culture as follows:
1. The necessity of determining and unifying an important "noun" in name culture
At present, all departments and individuals engaged in external services of name culture are involved in both service and publicity. A very important "noun" is determined, which is to use: "naming", "naming", "naming" which is more accurate, more conducive to the dissemination and promotion of name culture, and more in line with the importance of the cultural connotation of names!
Judging from the use of departments and individuals engaged in name culture external services across the country, there are users of these three formulations. I just looked at the names of the "co-organizers" mentioned in the "invitation letters" of various Yi-Xue conferences held in China in recent years, and there are two department names referred to as "naming" and "naming network". If you look at the various name books and periodicals published, all three formulations are used.
Name culture is a serious culture with strong scientific and professional operation. If we don't pay attention to the three terms of "naming", "naming" and "naming", everyone will do nothing with each term. This will inevitably cause the "name" culture to be based on the "origin of the noun". There is a serious lack of connotation and ambiguity in the formulation of "name" as a culturally "important noun". It will also directly affect the correct promotion and dissemination of the "name" culture and the correct use by citizens of the whole society.
If we consider the qualifications regulated by industry associations, is it correct to determine the qualification as "namer", or to determine the qualification as "namer", or to determine the qualification as "namer". "One person lives one life, one person lives one's life, the name is just and right, and luck will always be with you." We can see the importance of an elegant and valuable name. Therefore, it would be more accurate to adopt and promote the word "naming", which can truly reflect the seriousness of "naming".
Next, we can study the correct use of the seriousness of the three terms "naming", "naming" and "naming" from dictionary reference books and periodicals such as "Shuowen" sex.

In the traditional Chinese folk name culture, all children are born to elders with status in the clan. The elders or respected people with status or status among the people. Give it an auspicious name. This is a true portrayal of the traditional folk name culture that has been inherited by the Chinese people for thousands of years.

The seriousness of the namer and the sense of mission of the named person.
