What is the use of seniority in Chinese names?

When Chinese people choose names, they often use some methods in their names to distinguish different generations of the same family. For example, using one character in a name indicates seniority, while using another character indicates the meaning of the name. Some also use the same radical in their names to indicate the same generation. In ancient China, due to the influence of the patriarchal system, there was a taboo system in the use of names. Pay attention to the taboo of the venerable person. When speaking or writing, you must avoid the name of your father's elders. When choosing a name, you cannot use words that are in their names or have the same sound. Although we no longer pay attention to this, some people still try not to use words with the same name or the same sound as their parents or ancestors when naming. Due to the influence of taboos, Chinese people still consider it disrespectful to call their elders by their first names.
