However, a good name is not chosen randomly. Baby names also have their own rules and taboos. So, what are the rules and taboos about baby naming? Let’s go to the baby naming directory with Teacher Qin Yangming!
1. The meaning of the words should be auspicious, avoid vulgarity, calmness, westernized fonts, and avoid harmful fonts. 2. The pronunciation of the characters should be pleasant to the ear, Ruyi, balanced between yin and yang, and full of rhythm. 3. The fonts should be coordinated, varied, and easy to write. 4. It should be combined with family tradition, career and the expectations of parents and elders for their children. 5. Some families arrange their seniority by characters, which can prevent them from having the same names, characters, and accents as their ancestors. 6. Name boys and girls according to their different gender characteristics and should reflect their gender characteristics. 7. Name the child based on the circumstances before and after birth, such as the climate characteristics at the time or whether there were any special events before and after birth. 8. Name the child based on the time of birth. Consider the year, month, day, season, hour, zodiac, etc. 9. It implies ideals, ambitions, hobbies and goal pursuits. The wish is placed in the name, which means wisdom, perseverance, open-mindedness, luxury, elegance, refinement, happiness and longevity.
Don’t underestimate the symbols of this surname. Some names give people the association of grandeur, grandeur, and vigor, while some names give people the fragrance of quietness and elegance. Some people often use their names to motivate themselves and eventually succeed, while some people have mediocre names that make people content with the status quo and lead them to work hard all their lives. This can also be regarded as a kind of message. A good name lasts a lifetime. Therefore, naming is the most important thing. It is best to invite scholars and experts to give their opinions.
Common taboos when naming: 1. Taboo the names of ancestors and sages. Han people generally avoid names of ancestors when naming. First, the Han tradition places great emphasis on seniority. Taking the names of ancestors not only disturbs the order of generation, but also is regarded as disrespectful to the ancestors. The second reason is due to the particularity of the Han people. Han surnames first inherit the father's surname, and then give their own name, while some ethnic minorities or foreigners have their birth name, their father's name, or their birth name plus their mother's surname and father's surname. For example, French people's names usually have three parts, namely their real name, their mother's surname, and their father's surname. If a person with a Chinese name inherits his father's surname and adds the name of his ancestor, there will be no difference between the two. In this way, you will have no way of telling whether Li Si is his grandfather or his son.
Under the feudal system, people not only respected their ancestors, but also regarded them as supreme. Even calling the monarch by his name was treason. During the Yongzheng and Qianlong reigns of the Qing Dynasty, this rule alone could be used to treat people. The death penalty affects all nine clans. So this taboo was called a national taboo. But as far as modern people are concerned, in terms of name theory, they generally do not use the names of great people and celebrities. But some people deliberately take his name because they admire a certain great person or celebrity. For example, Li Dalin and Zhang Dazhao were named after Li Dazhao and Stalin. Of course, people with the surname Zhao and Guan should not be named after Zilong and Yunchang, otherwise there will be no distinction between ancient and modern times.
2. Taboo names with cold or cold characters are for social use. Otherwise, the name will lose its value. Today's era is the age of computers, and the Chinese characters stored in most computers are limited to commonly used characters. If you use some uncommon words when naming, which most people don't recognize, it must affect the communication between people. Using uncommon words in names will only make other people's work more difficult and troublesome.
The reason why people choose uncommon characters when using names is actually very simple, just to avoid being cliché. However, the number of commonly used characters that people generally recognize is only three to four thousand, and the purpose of naming is mainly for others to address, not to show off knowledge. Someone once gave an example: when you apply for a job in a certain department, if the supervisor does not recognize your name after reading your resume, then his impression of you will definitely be very vague. If he mispronounces your name when calling you and you correct him, the situation may embarrass the leader. The leader will feel embarrassed or even angry because he has lost face. You may also feel contempt because the leader does not even recognize your name. In the future, when superiors and subordinates get along, some discord or disharmony may occur.
While naming should avoid clichés and similarities, it cannot rely on using uncommon words. The use of uncommon words affects the image and hinders communication, which is not worth the gain. The number of Chinese characters in our country is very large. The "Kangxi Dictionary" alone contains 42,174 characters. In addition, there are often very subtle differences between traditional and simplified characters, ancient and modern characters, and traditional and popular characters.
In the old days, when people came up with names, they liked to read the Kangxi Dictionary, which is not advisable. We need to use a reference book, and the ideal one is "Modern Chinese Dictionary". It also includes words under each character, which is of great reference value for naming. When using this reference book, you should also pay attention to avoid the uncommon words in it.
3. Avoid monotonous repetition of name fonts. Some people like to use the physical structure of Chinese characters to make a fuss when naming. For example: the three names Shi, Lei, Lin, Sen, Nie and Er are examples of this. The aesthetic effect of this kind of naming is quite good, but it is a pity that our surnames can only be used so little. And even if the three surnames are Shi, Lin, and Nie, it is impossible for everyone to use this method.
Some people like to use the same radicals in their names when naming, and promote this as a naming technique, such as Li Ji and Zhang Chi. This technique is actually not worth promoting.
