You should also pay attention to the font. This includes two meanings: first, it is better to recognize the names when they are written, and try not to use those uncommon words; Second, the name should be about the shelf structure, which looks good when written.
1. Remote words and names
There are a large number of Chinese characters, most of which are not common in Kangxi dictionary, and the number of Chinese characters recognized by ordinary people is generally around 3,. Some people always like to use some unusual words to name their names, and some words can't even be found in the dictionary. These people think that naming people with unfamiliar words will give people a good impression of learning and education, but it is not. Name is a symbol of communication with others. If others don't know it, this communication will become a one-way flow, which will bring inconvenience. And from the actual situation, when a person can't recognize or read another person's name, it will inevitably produce a feeling of embarrassment and loss of face, and even unwilling to associate with this person. A psychologist once made statistics on such incidents. If people are named with relatively obscure words, their social skills are generally poor, and 87% of them are withdrawn. It seems that this is enough to attract the attention of the name.
2. Glyphs and names
Chinese characters are square characters with extremely high structure, which can be roughly divided into: single structure, up-and-down structure, left-right structure, up-and-down structure, left-middle-right structure, up-and-down structure, up-and-down structure, semi-enclosed structure, fully enclosed structure, interspersed structure, crystal structure and special structure.
The characters of unibody structure are: stone, water, people, Ding, B, people, sun ...
The characters of upper and lower structures are: flowers, fens, harsh, kites ...
The characters of left and right structures are: Hu, Can, She, He and. Canal ...
The words of the upper and lower sub-structures are: haze, salary, rain ...
The words of the semi-enclosed structure are: Bao, Jin, Mai, Craftsman, Minister, Kuang, Ju, Hall ...
The words of the fully enclosed structure are: Guo. Because surnames are innate, fixed and destined to be unchangeable, while names are acquired and can be changed.
Therefore, the surname has become the benchmark and reference of the whole name structure and form. In fact, a person's surname has set a "tone" for the whole name, and even determines the choice and abandonment of the words of the name. Generally speaking, monograms have fewer strokes and simple shapes; However, synthetic characters have more strokes and more complex shapes. In synthetic characters, the characters with the structure of upper, middle, lower, left, middle and right have more strokes, and the shape is more complicated. When naming a name, the strokes of each word in the name should be relatively equal, so as to give people a sense of stability and balance. Otherwise, it will look ugly and uncomfortable to write, and the name as a whole should be "architectural beauty".
For example, Lai is a word with an interspersed structure. If it is named "Lai Shenwu". In terms of glyph alone, its overall structure and shape look quite comfortable. What is lacking is that the three words of surname and first name are too consistent and monotonous on the whole. It should be said that this name is "organized" and pays attention to symmetry, which has a certain "architectural beauty". The reason for this is that the word "Lai" of this surname first set the tone.
Ding is a word with a unique structure, with few strokes, which requires the words with matching names, preferably with fewer strokes. For example, Ding Xiaolan, on the whole, gives people a more even, harmonious and comfortable feeling. Ding Fansen will give people the feeling of being small and heavy, which is not harmonious; Ding Yiwei, on the other hand, gives people the feeling of putting priority before weight, which is not harmonious.
In the same way, there are more strokes in Yan characters, and it is better to match them with more strokes.
For example, Yan Zilei is more symmetrical; Yan Yiping is top-heavy; Yan Ziyi makes people feel unbalanced. When Yan wins, it's ok, because it feels like a burden to pick two baskets, which is stable from left to right and looks harmonious.
The same is true for word names. Such as Ding Ping, the overall structure and shape are harmonious; Ding wins, that is, the head is small and the body is heavy; Yanyi, on the other hand, is top-heavy, with a symmetrical overall structure and full body.
The overall structure and shape of a name should be based not only on the strokes of characters, but also on the changes of glyphs, and attention should be paid to the coordination and beauty of glyphs. For example, the name "National Reunion" is surrounded by all three characters, regardless of the pronunciation. Just from the shape, the name gives people the impression that it is lack of change, monotonous and completely closed, which is due to the overall disharmony of the name.
Another simple-looking name is Ding Yiyi. Apart from pronunciation, the name gives people the impression that it is too pale, lonely, monotonous and unimaginative.
Chinese characters, like people, can also be divided into several types, such as strong type, thin type, real type and weak type.
Words like these, such as: Yan, Cheng, Wei, Hao, Rong ... give people the feeling of being strong, uplifting, vigorous and full of vitality. And some words, like thin children, give people the impression of being soft, negative and less decisive, such as fighting, equality, year, city, silk, science and so on.
Some words belong to the younger generation, which are as strong, rich, strong and aggressive as a 3-year-old man, such as Qu, Lou, Sui, Feng, Ji and Tai.
The words "weak type" give people the feeling of being empty and empty, and some of them are mysterious. These words sometimes seem to give people a wonderful feeling like Lin Daiyu, who has a strange skeleton. Such as: several, mouth, door, square, line, bow, etc.
When parents name their children, they should know that going too far is not enough, and pay attention to the collocation of strong, weak, real and imaginary characters. Names such as Cheng Weihao, Wu Pingke, Fu Jitai, and Men Jitian are things we need to avoid. These names are either connected by three strong words, which are too full; Some are three thin words or weak words connected together, which appear congenital deficiency, bluff or too empty, and these are tried to avoid when naming.
