1. Naming method based on surname
1. Naming method based on surname
Generally speaking, the surname and The name is irrelevant, but if the idea is clever, the surname and the given name can be combined into one and become interesting names, such as: Niu Decao, Jiang Wenyu, Tianye, Jinshan, etc. These names make the surname and the given name cleverly connected together to form a complete word and get a complete concept. Specifically, this method of naming can be divided into four subcategories:
(1) Vocabulary formula
Vocabulary formula is to combine the surname and the first name into independent words. This type of name Because it is a ready-made word, it is easy to remember. Such as plateau, field, clove, relaxation, carefulness, charter, frontier, hot spring, list, zigzag, Jinchuan, leaves, etc. These are all names that combine the sounds and meanings of the characters relatively well, but there is also an obvious shortcoming of this type of names, that is, the names created using this method are mostly single names, so the possibility of duplication of names is relatively high. Another shortcoming of this type of name is that sometimes when this type of name appears in the middle of an article, people cannot tell whether it is a word or a name at first glance, and they have to read it several times before they can distinguish clearly, such as "article", "shenyang" Such names. Therefore, you must be cautious when using this method of naming. If you can achieve novel combinations and avoid duplication of names, you can consider using this method; if your surname determines that you cannot do these two things, then you should consider it. Named in other ways.
(2) Name meaning connection type
Name meaning connection type refers to a naming method in which the meanings of the surname and the given name are closely linked. As we all know, in addition to indicating the blood relationship of the family to which it belongs, a surname itself also has a literal meaning. Therefore, this makes it possible for us to directly connect the first name and last name in literal meaning to form a complete concept. Such names are lively and interesting, have profound meanings, and are endlessly memorable. For example, the famous Chinese economist Luo Gengmo, whose original name was Ding Tutong, was changed to his current name in 1934 to encourage himself to use the energy of a camel to plow the desert to pursue truth and the future of revolution. Such names include Miao Deyu, Liang Shangyan, Che Xiangqian, Bai Rubing, Sheng Zhongguo, Yue Feiqiu, Niu Yinquan, Ma Yongqin, Wan Pangen, Guan Shanyue, Lian Tianxue, etc.
(3) Contradictory form
Contradictory form is to use the meaning of the last name. When choosing a name, choose the word with its opposite meaning, which can often give people a good impression. Novel, harmonious and sudden feeling, thus leaving a deep impression on people. For example, Niu Jiji: According to the literal meaning, cow gives people the impression of being big, hard-working, and slow, and has nothing to do with words such as agility and speed. This name connects cow and agility, which has both meaning and hope. , becomes a well-conceived and good name. Another example is the clearness of the yellow water: the Yellow River leaves people with the impression of being majestic, surging, and difficult to subdue. Clear is the antonym of turbid. The word "clear" fully expresses the yearning for the bright future of the Yellow River. Some other names of this kind can be cited, such as An Wei, Xia Liang, etc.
(4) Abbreviated idiom
Abbreviated idiom is a shortened form that cleverly combines the surname and the given name into an idiom or allusion by making use of the inherent connection between the meanings of the name. The names created using this method are philosophical and thought-provoking. For example, "Xiu Zhiping" is the abbreviation of the idiom "Xiu Qi Zhiping". Reading the name of modern writer Wan Laiming reminds people of the idiom "everything is silent", which leaves a deep impression on people. Other names that use abbreviated idioms include: Ma Chenggong - immediate success, An Liye - settling down and establishing a career, Zhou Erfu - Zhou again and again, Lu Yao - Lu Yao knows the horse power, Yan Zhen - be ready, Ma knows the way - the old horse knows the way, Ye Zhiqiu ——One leaf knows autumn.
The disadvantage of using this method of naming is that it is easy to cause duplication of names, because there is less room for choice when naming using this method. Therefore, when naming, you must think more about it and strive for the best. Choose a name that is consistent with naming conventions and is not easy to repeat.
In addition to the above, there are also many philosophical names that are composed of first and last names. These names are often inextricably linked to Chinese proverbs or idioms, so they have meanings. It is profound and can give people profound warning and enlightenment. It is often regarded by people as their own creed and code of conduct in life and plays an immeasurable role in social morality and atmosphere.
For example, "Shi Potian" comes from the poem "Shi Potian is shocked and chases the autumn rain", which expresses the lofty mind and unusual life ambitions of the owner of the name. Another example is "Mei Aohan", the fable "The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold". Only by experiencing hardships in life can we move towards success. Just as a song sings: "How can you see the rainbow without going through wind and rain? No one can see the rainbow." You can succeed casually." There are many other names like this, such as: Shui Junyi, Cheng Fangyuan, Baili Xi, Ma Gongcheng, Liu Qingbai, etc.
It is not difficult to come up with such a name, as long as you are good at starting from the surname, exploring, and making connections to find the inner connection between the name and the surname in terms of emotion, ambition, or meaning, and make an accurate analysis of it. Ingeniously conceive and temper it, integrating it with ancient and modern famous quotes, beautiful sentences or idioms and proverbs, making it natural, concise and full of artistic conception, then you will definitely get the wonderful name you want.
