In our Chaoshan area, when naming new children, the older generation will pay attention to some things, but the young people will not pay much attention to these things. They will be the same as those outside the Chaoshan area, without some Pay attention to regional characteristics.
Roughly speaking, people who are over 50 years old now belong to the older generation as I mentioned above.
When they name their newborns, they name them in order. Some people are named according to the generation order of the entire clan. For example, my uncle's generation in the village belongs to the "Jun" generation, so my uncle's name will have "Jun" in it. Character. My uncle's contemporaries, that is, my uncle's uncles, uncle's sons, and their friends all have the character "jun" in their names. What about some people? They will follow the order passed down from their ancestors in their own family. People of this generation will use this word, and people of the next generation will use another word. There are many words that have a fixed order. You are not allowed to name your children if they do not follow this order.
These older generations have another concern. This means that no one is allowed to be younger than oneself, no one is younger than oneself, and no one is allowed to have the same characters in their name as oneself. The reason why this happens is that some young people do not follow the tradition of naming names of the older generation. As long as they think the word is good and meaningful, they give it to children. As a result, some words are similar to those of the older generation. People of the same generation overlap, so in the eyes of the older generation, this is also taboo.
The above is what we should avoid when naming.
