Are there any rules or restrictions on naming in China? Please help me.

5. Avoid pronouncing "tongue-twisting" words. Sometimes you can use overlapping sounds when naming. For example: Ding Ding, Fang Fang, Xin Xin, etc. If the name is not an overlapping sound, there must be a certain distance between the pronunciation of the first name and the surname. Otherwise, it will not be read smoothly and the desired effect will not be achieved. Some names are difficult to pronounce and difficult to pronounce, and if you don't do it well, you may mispronounce or hear them incorrectly. The reason is that the names are awkward and almost become "tongue twisters", such as Shen Jiji, Xia Yayi, Zhou Xiaochao, Geng Jingzhong, Jiang Jiaqiang, Zhang Changshang, Hu Chufu, Chen Yunlin, Fu Zhufu, etc. Some of these names use two initials with the same sound, such as Yayi, Jiang Jia, etc. Some use two words with the same rhyme, such as Jiji, Xiaya, Xiaochao, Hufu, Lizhi, etc. The former type is double tone, and the latter type is duplication rhyme. Some three characters have the same rhyme, such as Zhang Changshang, Hu Chufu, Chen Yunlin, Fu Zhufu, etc. The so-called "tongue twisting" words mainly refer to double-tone words, overlapping rhyme words and homonym words. Since the initial consonants are the same, it is difficult to pronounce them consecutively; words with the same rhymes are read together, and their pronunciation is also more difficult; therefore, the double rhyme is the main reason for "tongue twisting". From this point of view, the avoidance of naming with "unpronounceable" characters mainly refers to the avoidance of naming with double tones or overlapping rhymes. Once you master this rule, it will be much easier to handle. Naming that meets the standards of phonetic beauty should have different sets of initial consonants and different types of finals for the first name and last name. For example: Peng Tao, Feng Qi, Lou Yun, Qi Fei, Yu Sheng, Wan Hong, etc. Due to the different pronunciation of the names and surnames, the sounds of these names have changed, making them easier to read and more pleasant to the ear. If the first name and last name are in the same group, or even identical, as long as the relationship between the finals is properly handled, the effect will be very good; on the contrary, if the first name and last name are in the same group, or even identical, then you need to work hard on the initials. For example: Peng Bin, Feng Fan, Lou Lin, Zhang Chen, Yu Kuan, Fang Chuan, etc. 6. Avoid reading indecent homophones. Some people’s names may appear to be very elegant, but because they sound the same or similar to other indecent words and phrases, they can easily arouse people’s ridicule and ridicule, and become the subject of jokes. Talking about things, producing some kind of funny comedy effect. Such words can be divided into two categories: one is some idioms in life, and the other is derogatory words. For example: Miyagan Ju (Public Security Bureau), Cai Dao (Chop Knife), Lu Hui (Ashes), He Shang (Monk), Tao Huayun (Peach Blossom Luck), Li Zongtong (President Li), Tang Qiu (Sugar Ball), Bao Man Hua (corn flower) and so on. The above homophonic sounds make the name seem not serious and solemn enough, and it is easy to make people laugh in public. In addition, there are some names that are easily misunderstood as derogatory terms, such as Bai Yanliang (white-eyed wolf), Hu Lijing (vixen), Shen Jingbing (psychopath), etc. This homophony often turns into a nickname. If parents are not careful when naming names, they can easily cause a heavy psychological burden on their children. By then it will be too late to regret it. 7. Avoid words that are too fashionable. At any stage in history, there will always be some extremely fashionable words. If you pursue such words when naming, it will inevitably make people feel that the parents' cultural quality is poor, simple and vulgar, and such names are easy to repeat. "Jianguo" in the 1950s and "Weidong" in the 1970s can be said to have spread all over the country; "Li Jianguo", "Ma Jianguo", "Chen Jianguo", "Wang Weidong", "Liu Weidong", "Zhao Weidong"... can be said to be thousands of times. Human side. Due to the spread of political fanaticism, incorporating political color into names once became the most fashionable thing. It is true that names do need colors to embellish them, but the colors of names need to be colorful. It would be too monotonous for everyone to chase trendy words. This makes people think deeply. Although our country has thousands of years of feudal history and pays attention to words such as "loyalty" and "filial piety", if the word "fan" is eliminated, the frequency of use of words such as "loyalty" and "filial piety" Not high. This shows that the ancients did not like to follow fashion in naming. Among the Confucian masters of the past dynasties, those great Confucians who tried their best to instill "loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness" in people, which one has words like "loyalty" and "filial piety" in his name? Confucius talked about "benevolence" all his life, but he named his son after a fish? Li. Chasing political buzzwords is just a manifestation of political naivety and superficiality. This is the extreme end of chasing fashion. Secondly, Chinese people should not give names that are too Westernized. The descendants of the Chinese nation are the descendants of an ancient civilization. Our nation has its own ethics, aesthetic consciousness and cultural values, so we should not underestimate ourselves. Especially in naming, it should show the need to maintain national characteristics. Folks believe that it is sometimes fashionable to choose a name that is almost Westernized, such as John, Mary, Lisa, Anna, etc.

However, in the future social changes and interpersonal interactions, it may create a contemptuous and unpleasant impression on the other party's psychology. Of course, this is a misunderstanding based on different cultures, but this misunderstanding may also affect the opportunities that people get. Paying such a price for a name is not worthwhile anyway. 8. Avoid overly complimentary words. Whether a name sounds good or not does not depend on how gorgeous the words are, but on how well the words are used. But some people may make mistakes: naming boys is always inseparable from some overly violent words, such as Hao, Qiang, Yan, Meng, Chuang, Gang, etc. Although it is decisive and strong when read, it is better to use manly words. Style, but it can also easily remind people of being unruly, unruly, willful, and informal, and mistaken for some arrogant warriors. Therefore, since ancient times, the general aristocrats have tried to avoid naming boys. Open these words. Because Chinese culture believes that those who are strong and strong are not those brave people who express their joy and anger in words and draw swords when encountering difficulties, but some great men who have a noble spirit, are not surprised or angry when encountering difficulties, and talk and laugh happily. Some people name girls but they always use words such as Chunlan, Qiuju, Zhenzhen, Yanyan, etc. However, if they are placed in a certain cultural atmosphere, it will make people feel like they are floating. For example, the words "hua", "ping", "yan", "peach" and "willow" are often popular in women's names. Although the flowers are beautiful and bright for a while, they dominate the beauty and dominate the limelight, but after the storm, they will fall into pieces and become dust. Willows are also soft and fragile things. In the idioms, the willow-like willow-like willows, the broken flowers and the willows, etc., express the emotional evaluation of the symbolic meaning of this kind of thing. Peach blossoms evoke the association that beauty is prone to decay. Ping and Liu are both symbols of wandering and parting. Therefore, folk custom believes that when naming, you should try to avoid these seemingly bright words. 9. Simple names are taboo with common surnames. Currently, there is a trend of single-name names in our country, and the biggest disadvantage of single-name names is that they cause a large number of duplicate names. Calculated based on 4,000 Chinese characters, if all people use a single name, only 4,000 people can use a single name for a surname, and the 4,001th person will start to have the same name. In this way, the probability of duplicate names will inevitably increase greatly. On the contrary, although our country has more people and fewer surnames, if we use double names, if we avoid using fashionable words and clichés, the probability of having the same name is very low. From the perspective of aesthetic effects, double names have incomparable advantages in terms of the combination of glyphs, the harmony of pronunciations, and the refinement of word meanings. At least they have much more room for choice than single names. For a large country with a population of more than one billion, it is impossible to completely avoid duplication of names. Moreover, even if many nicknames have the same name, they will not have much impact. For example, with the surname Chu, it is rare to have a person with the surname Chu in a unit. It is simply a miracle that someone with the same name appears again. Not so with big surnames. "Zhang Wang, Li Zhao and Liu everywhere", if such a surname is given a single name, it will inevitably lead to a large number of duplicate names. People will notice that almost everyone with the same name has a common surname. There are two "Liu Wei" in a unit. If they are of the opposite sex, people will call them "male Liu Wei" and "female Liu Wei"; if they are of the same sex, they will call them "big Liu Wei", "little Liu Wei" or "fat Liu Wei". ", "Thin Liu Wei" to show the difference. Instead of letting others add words at will, why not add another word and change it to a double name? In the current craze for single names, it is better to calmly choose a two-character name instead of having a big surname. As long as you give full play to the advantages of double names, it is not difficult to choose a name that is both elegant and loud. Generally speaking, it is relatively easier to name a small surname, and there is much more room for choice than a large surname. Some words that have been abused and become vulgar by big surnames have a very different effect when combined with small surnames. For example: Feng Wei, Chu Jian, Ku Bin, Sa Hua, etc. Of course, this does not mean that the naming of small surnames can be careless. Except for having more room for choice, the problems encountered by people with small surnames and those with big surnames are almost the same. 10. Not as taboo as other places. Some of the "forbidden areas" in names are established by social conventions, some are restricted by word meanings, and some are subordinate to one's own social concepts and aesthetic consciousness. Some words have become "forbidden areas" in names. Certain words for filth and uncleanness are generally not considered names. However, some people or some areas have the custom of giving their children "mean names", "ugly names", and "dirty names" in order to prevent the children from being visited by demons, so that they can avoid disasters and live longer. . In fact, this is a superstition. Certain words indicating disease and ominousness are generally not included in names or numbers. The parts and organs of the human body cannot be named. But some are also named, or even often named. There was Chong'er in the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhang Er, the king of Zhao in the Qin and Han Dynasties, Xiong Xin, the king of Chu Huai in the Warring States Period, and Liu Xinwu, a famous contemporary writer.

However, these words for human body organs all have new meanings in conjunction with other words. The word formed by combining the word "heart" and "other" has a very different meaning from the meaning of human body organs. Some disgusting animals have inappropriate names. However, some animals are often named, such as golden leopard, tiger, flat pigeon, little swallow, etc. Most of the element names are not included in the names, but there are five types that are often named, such as: gold, silver, copper, iron, and tin; they are named gold, jade, and iron. Appellations indicating seniority are generally not included in the names, and there are quite a few "son" included in the names. Most of the names of typical characters in literary and artistic works have not been given by future generations. The names of certain typical characters and the specific meanings they represent have become part of Chinese culture and have fixed meanings integrated into them. In addition to the above categories, there are of course many characters, words and names that are inconvenient or inappropriate to include. Name taboos are actually all-encompassing and profound, including politics, culture, customs, psychology and many other contents
