Of course not! It’s just different habits!
The ancients were very particular about naming. They paid attention to cultural connotations and had the custom of respecting their elders. (It’s not that we don’t respect our elders now, it’s just that in ancient times, they took this very seriously.) Their names are also very particular, and they all sound nice to read. But now we can slowly find that our names don’t seem to have such cultural heritage, and naming has become more casual. But is this really a loss of culture? No, in fact, there are mainly the following reasons.
First, our lives are richer now, and we no longer just study poetry and books. With the development of the times and the advancement of science and technology, people no longer focus on the meaning of words, and no longer care about feelings. In fact, everyone wants to give their offspring a nice name, but they are too lazy to think about it, so they just choose a common name. Secondly, music, chess, calligraphy and painting can be regarded as the only pastime for the ancients. They did not have so many entertainment methods like us. They study books more, while fewer and fewer people read books like us now. The last point is that parents choose names more casually. For example, the word they see in the dictionary is that word. Others just rely on their own preferences, or directly use the words left by seniority. These really make the name very unscrupulous. But there are still many parents who choose names with great style and ideas. They can make the names of their children more culturally sophisticated, have a certain meaning and expectations for their children.
But as far as naming is concerned, our culture has not been lost. Times are slowly developing, and people's thoughts are also slowly changing. Although names can be regarded as a kind of culture, the random choice of names cannot be called cultural loss.
