In the past, the countryside was named after generations. Why is it out of fashion now?

For the old traditions in the countryside? Named after generations? We should understand more, especially in the south. At that time, after the boy was born, he followed this old tradition when choosing his name: he was named according to his seniority in the family. For example, farmers were born after 1980. What is the ranking of generations in our family? Few Desheng, Fang Ming Qi Fu? At present? Name? Word generation and niche? Kay? Some people in the word generation still follow the old tradition of naming, but the next generation of these people basically no longer follow this old tradition. It can be said that the naming of the word generation has gradually become unpopular since the 1950s and 1960s. Then why is the old tradition that rural people used to follow: naming by generation out of fashion now?

How to give children a nice and not too rustic name is a headache for many parents. In the past few hundred years, China people have been named according to their generations. Simply put, the names of people in a family are only one word short of those of their peers.

During this time, I had a headache for naming my children for a long time. As a young man, I don't like to be named after my husband's family tree. Because I think it's a bit corny to name by seniority, which has been 2 1 century. Why should we name by seniority?

The reason why "seniority" is unpopular,

Farmers' ideas are no longer so traditional.

China used to be a feudal country. At that time, people had to do everything according to tradition, including naming their children. But with the development of the times, people have abandoned these backward ideas. So now rural people no longer pay so much attention to "seniority" in naming.

The overall cultural level of farmers has improved.

In previous generations, few people were able to receive a good education. In backward rural areas, few people can study. I can't think of a better name, so I have to name it by generation. However, after the popularization of compulsory education, more rural people are educated and have ideas about children's names.

Family culture is not so important anymore.

We attach great importance to our family culture, so children should be named according to their generation. Many large families in the countryside have begun to disperse slowly. The whole family went to live in big cities. After leaving home, there is no need to follow the tradition of naming children.

"Named after generations" has gradually failed to adapt to the development of this society. However, at present, naming children according to their seniority still applies to many rural areas. As a surname culture in China, naming by generations may still exist for a long time.

Naming by generations is a traditional culture in China, which can be passed down for so many years. There must be a reason. If nothing else, some people now give their children two-word names, which are wonderful. Not only will future generations not know where their roots are, but they may also walk in the street, often? The water rushes to the Longwang Temple, but the family doesn't recognize the family? . Do you know the word generation in your family? Do you follow the tradition, name your children according to their generation, or do you want to?
