When is a good time to name the child?

People often wonder when it is more appropriate to name their children. Naming a child before pregnancy means that parents are eager to have a child before the child is born, or because of things and other factors, they usually give their children two names, one is a boy's name and the other is a girl's name, which also expresses parents' desire to have a child. Here is a detailed analysis of the best time to name your child.

Prenatal name preparation means choosing a name before the baby is born. During infertility, when a new life is being conceived, the name is usually reserved. Parents always think about the fetus in the womb, looking forward to the birth of a new life and the future of a new life. Parents naturally can't help thinking about the names that accompany their children's lives.

Generally, the prepared names are double names, because in most cases, parents don't know whether they are pregnant with a boy or a girl, so it is necessary to prepare a name suitable for both men and women, and it depends on the gender of the child after birth.

In addition, some parents not only consider gender factors, but also consider birth time, appearance, characteristics and many other aspects to prepare multiple names for their children.

It is a custom of the Han nationality to name your first birthday, and it is more common to name it after the popular "Zhuzhou". This custom originated in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, when it was called "testing children". It was called "trying to get drunk" in the Tang and Song Dynasties, "grasping the week" or "trying the week" in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and so on.

The so-called grasping Zhou refers to putting all kinds of articles or daily necessities, such as bows, arrows, paper, pens, money, treasure knives, rulers, needles and threads, in front of a child when he is one year old, so that he can grasp them at will, so as to predict his future, personality, ambition and interest in the future, and take corresponding names according to the results and predictions of grasping. Students who are unprepared are too hasty in naming, especially big names. The name of prenatal preparation also does not take into account the situation of the child at birth and after birth. Therefore, it is recommended to prepare the name before birth, correct it after birth, and confirm it when reporting. As for taking into account local folk customs, we can be flexible according to the requirements of tradition and reality.

How to name a baby?

First, taboo

Taboo is a special way of naming in China society, which is very different from that in western society. In western society, fathers and sons, or generations, out of admiration for the previous generation, will directly inherit the names of the previous generation, such as "Charles I" and "charles ii". But when naming names in China society, it is usually impossible for two generations to adopt similar names. The father's name is one word, and the child's name is usually two words. And there are few homophones, which is a respect for my father.

Second, the pattern.

In China society, it is a common phenomenon to consider the pattern when choosing a name. Generally speaking, few people only consider whether they are good or not when choosing names, regardless of the pattern. The influence of pattern on names is mainly reflected in the pattern of birth and the theory of five elements. Generally speaking, when we consider the baby's name, we will add up the five missing elements in the child's life, and then add up the word's shape or meaning to make the baby's five elements balanced and the data peaceful.

Third, phonology.

A good name must be read aloud first, so parents should consider whether the pronunciation and rhyme of the name are impressive enough. Generally speaking, two-word names will be louder than three-word names, and three-word names will be louder. Because Chinese has four tones, try not to let the previous tone exceed the fourth tone. Then the tone of the name will drop.

Fourth, meaning.

After satisfying the four demands, a good name should have a good connotation. The connotation of a name often places all parents' expectations on their children, so the implication in the name must be positive. Moreover, many studies have confirmed that names do play an extraordinary role in children's psychological suggestion and have a noticeable influence on their growth process. For example, a man with a masculine name often has a lot of masculine personality.
