Taboo the names of ancestors and sages
When naming, the Han people generally avoid the names of their ancestors. 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. Of course, people with the surname Zhao and Guan should not be named "Zilong" and "Yunchang", otherwise there will be no distinction between ancient and modern times.
Avoid words that are too complimentary
Whether a name sounds good or not does not depend on how gorgeous the words are, but on how well the words are used. But some people may make mistakes: naming boys is always inseparable from some overly violent words, such as Hao, Qiang, Yan, Meng, Chuang, Gang, etc. Although it is decisive and strong when read, it is better to use manly words. Style, but it can also easily remind people of being unruly, unruly, willful, and informal, and mistaken for some arrogant warriors. Therefore, since ancient times, the general aristocrats have tried to avoid naming boys. Open these words. Because Chinese culture believes that those who are strong and strong are not those brave people who express their joy and anger in words and draw swords when encountering difficulties, but some great men who have a noble spirit, are not surprised or angry when encountering difficulties, and talk and laugh happily.
For example, the words "hua", "pin", "yan", "peach" and "willow" are often popular in women's names. Although the flowers are beautiful and bright for a while, they dominate the beauty and dominate the limelight, but after the storm, they will fall into pieces and become dust. Willows are also soft and fragile things. In the idioms, the willow-like willow-like willows, the broken flowers and the willows, etc., express the emotional evaluation of the symbolic meaning of this kind of thing. Peach blossoms evoke the association that beauty is prone to decay. Ping and Liu are both symbols of wandering and parting. Therefore, folk custom believes that when naming, you should try to avoid these seemingly bright words.
