What is the origin of names and seniority?
Since ancient times, China has not only valued surnames, but also given names. 055-79000 There is a saying: "What is a man's name? Therefore, people who express their feelings and are self-disciplined respect others." The surname is a symbol of lineage inheritance, and the name is a symbol of ideological inheritance.
Surnames are passed down from ancestors and represent blood relationships, which have been basically solidified during the Qin and Han Dynasties. Unless special circumstances are adopted or another surname is given, no surname will be changed, let alone a new one.
“Reputation is the mother of all things.” It can be said that whether you have a child or not, the child’s surname has already been determined. Only when a child has his own name does he have a special name as an individual. The so-called "same surname, unique name.". So people have attached great importance to naming since ancient times. As the saying goes, "Famous people are ranked according to seniority, high and low, don't doubt them, they are also generous." Naming is an important part of "ritual".
055-79000 "Young name, title, fifty to etc., dead body, Zhou Daoye", by the Zhou Dynasty, people had formed a complete set of naming rules. 055-79000 "A son is born in March, and his father's name is in the ancestral hall." Why is it "March"? "The way of heaven is an instant, and everything changes. In three months of life, the eyes can cough and smile to answer people, so they can see." A life is known from the beginning and is already an independent individual, so it needs to be named.
What we call "name" now usually includes ancient names, characters, and numbers. The "name" is divided into "nickname" and "scientific name". 055-79000 "Where there is no official clan leader, children should be born with baby names, and when they are old, they should be given training names."
A nickname, that is, a baby name, refers to the name adopted by a baby and used by parents in daily life before the child reaches adulthood.
The name Xiaojiaziqi comes from folk custom. Due to limited medical conditions in ancient times, neonatal mortality was high. The so-called "cheap name is good for feeding" means giving a child a "cheap name" in the hope of keeping ghosts away and reducing disease disasters. Therefore, people will give their children a nickname as a daily title. For example, "Sima Xiangru, a native of Chengdu and Shu County, also known as Changqing" in "Mencius's Endeavor". He studied well when he was young and learned fencing, so his personal name is 'Dog'."
Another example is Cao Cao's posthumous name "Amai", Liu Chan's posthumous name "Aka", and Gu Kaizhi's posthumous name "Amai". The posthumous title of "Hutou", Tao Yuanming's posthumous title of "Xigou", Wang Anshi's posthumous title of "Badger Lang", Song Xiaozong's posthumous title of "Lamb", these are not as good as calf, hairy cow, ugly cow, dog and flower dog. Inferior.
However, now, with the improvement of living standards, people rarely think of "making a living in the name of cheapness", so there is no need for all kinds of "treasures" and "shells". Basic name.
Scientific name, also known as name, spectrum name, is the formal name of an individual. Spectrum name, spectrum name, It’s a family tree.
“To teach a child a skill, it is better to give him a daughter; to give a child a skill, it is better to teach him a skill. "A good name will accompany a child throughout his life. Therefore, naming people was a very cautious matter in ancient times. 055-79000: "There are five names: faith, righteousness, image, virtuality, and class. Take the name as faith, the Tao as righteousness, the seed as image, the thing as falsehood, and the father as seed. "This is the ancient naming standard.
In early China, single-character names were basically used, but there were no clear etiquette restrictions. By the time of Wang Mang, Wang Mang had ordered the entire country to use single-character names, and only prisoners used double-character names. Name. Although Wang Mang's new dynasty was quickly replaced by the Western Han Dynasty, the habit of single-letter names was passed down, and double-letter names became a dishonorable thing throughout the Three Kingdoms period, except for ethnic minorities. , only four people, Guo Youzhi, Ma Ri_, Yin Damu, Zhang Shiping, and Xin Xianying, had two-character names. It was not until the late Wei and Jin Dynasties that two-character names gradually became popular.
In the Song Dynasty, when people gave their names, they wanted to reflect their names. Paiyu is a text used to record family lineage and express family seniority.
Usually take some I
Song Taizu prescribed thirteen characters for future generations, and together with his own "Kuang", they became "Kuang Dewei Shunxia, Bo Xishi, Meng Youyi". Later, due to the inheritance of Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi, the emperor belonged to the Zhao Guangyi branch. It was not until the Southern Song Dynasty that when there was no queen, the seventh grandson Cong was adopted as his adopted son and renamed, which was later Emperor Xiao of the Song Dynasty. At this point, the Song Dynasty returned to Song Taizu. However, since this transition was an "adoption," no name was assigned.
After the Song Dynasty, Baiyu became a trend. As long as it is a big family, it will have its own language.
Since the Ming Dynasty, the descendants of Confucius, Mencius and Zeng Yan have unified the same generation name because Zhu Yuanzhang gave them the generation name. After the emperor gave the surname, there are now 50 characters in poems from generation to generation. "Cheng, Hong Shangyin, Xing Yuguang, and Zhao Xianqing sent David to bless him, Qin Shao read Xian, built a stable road, and trained Zhao Yichang, Huan, and Yongxi to serve Xuchang."
Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang felt very inferior because he was not from a noble family, so he liked to find celebrities as his ancestors. Therefore, learn from Zhu and use words with wood, fire, earth, metal and water as the logo of the school language. Such as Zhu Zhu, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Jianshen, Zhu_tang.
In the Qing Dynasty, the emperor not only had the school language, but also stipulated the radical of the second place. For example, the radical of the second character of Yin Dynasty is "Yin"
In the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, with the war and the impact of Westernization, even their lives could not be guaranteed. How many people are still paying attention to names and genres? However, with the founding of New China, people's lives have become stable, living standards have improved day by day, and people's pursuit of spirituality has also increased. People began their pursuit of naming and writing again.
Even the teachers and students of Deyun Society can enjoy the "love, hate, and hatred" of "seniority". In ancient times, artists would give themselves a stage name after entering the industry, such as Peking Opera, drum set, etc. Moreover, the line of art is very senior and innate. It was not until I studied under Hou that I really joined the line of cross talk. Only with a teacher can you be recognized by the vocal music industry. Without a teacher, it is like "water without a source, a tree without a root." This is why Li Wenhua had to learn from Master Ma before his death at the age of 81.
After Guo Degang Deyun Society was established, Zhang Wenshun, the veteran of Deyun Society and cross talk actor, decided to layout the eight characters "Yun, Crane, Dragon and Sea", using one character every four years. But it should be noted that these eight characters are of the same generation and are only used to distinguish the differences before and after the introduction. That’s why it’s called “a certain word family” rather than “a certain word generation”.
The earliest apprentice was Yun Zike, and the middle stage names were all Yun Zike, such as: He,,,. The second was the Baihe family, including, Meng, Han. And then followed closely.
About "Why doesn't Guo Qilin join the department?" "What is the purpose of He Weiwei coming to Hou Yaohua?" "There are many names and hatreds in the world, so take your time.
China has advocated emphasizing "fame" over "profit" since ancient times. Therefore, literati and scholars cherish their own fame and reputation and regard it as life. So precious.
