How to name a baby?

What did you name the baby after it was born?

Personal experience: we can consider it from the perspectives of surname, number of words, gender, eight characters and five elements, implication, readability and writing style.

0 1 last name

In modern society, children do not always take their father's surname. Many families take their mother's surname, and some have a second child directly with their mother's surname. So the surname is the first consideration.

02 words

Now parents want their children's names not to be ugly, so they all like to choose three words to avoid duplicate names. But there are also families, because they use both their father's surname and their mother's surname, followed by a single name, which makes them uncomfortable to read, so they use double names, so that's four words.

However, we don't have to deliberately be unconventional and deliberately add the child's name to four or five words.

03 gender

The next step is to consider the problem of men and women. The name is a person's business card, so the child's name should represent his gender. Girls can choose some words that reflect tenderness, loveliness and gentleness, while boys can choose some words that reflect masculinity, wisdom and courage.

04 Eight Characters and Five Elements

Some software can be used to detect the child's eight-character and five-line characters, so as to find out what the child is missing. In order to add some words to the name. But some people like to have it tested. I just studied it myself. Of course, if you don't believe this, just skip it.

05 morality

Of course, we can also look through some classical poems and extract some meaningful words or phrases from them. On the one hand, it seems that the name is very literary, on the other hand, it seems to be very cultural.

Sounds good and easy to read.

Of course, we should also consider whether these words are spelled together, rhymed or awkward. The most important thing is to use less uncommon words and avoid some homophones, which will make people associate and lead to jokes.

07 writing

Finally, it is convenient to write. Don't embarrass children, one name is fifty or sixty, and it takes more time to write names in exams than others.
