will also do it." . Therefore, when people choose names, they sometimes express their prayer for a prosperous life and noble status through naming, such as Li Guangli, Liu Chuanfu, Gai Kuanrao, Wang Fugui, Qian Guang, Wu Shoufu, Sun Fushou, etc. Modern people often use such words in their names, such as Wang Yonggui, Li Maofu, Zhang Deli, etc. The same goes for pursuing an official career. Since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, people have generally sought fame and wealth through imperial examinations. Once they are named on the gold medal list, glory and wealth will come naturally. Therefore, in the naming, there are many names such as Fan Xinke, Qiu Zhuangyuan, Tang Diankui, Xu Zhankui, Huang Kaibang, Wei Kuishi, Wang Yankui, etc. Fourth, eliminate disasters. People always use various methods to express their desire to avoid disasters and turn bad luck into good luck. Sometimes naming is also a way of expression, such as Huo Qubing, Sima Xiaonan, Xin Qiji, Feng Quji, Huang Quji, Shi Baoji, Sun Fengji and others belong to this case.

But people always hope to prolong their lives as much as possible, preferably to live as long as heaven and achieve the ideal of Sun Wukong. This persistence and wish for life are sometimes expressed through naming. Therefore, people often use the word longevity when naming: such as Mao Yanshou, Zhang Chengshou, Xu Zengshou, Pan Tianshou, etc. In addition, there are many people who like to use the names Yannian, Wannian, Yongnian, Danian, Turtle Nian, Wanling, Trillium, Pine Ling and Crane Ling. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, the words "老", "官", "老", "father", etc. have been used in naming, which may also reveal the namer's affection for elders.
