Why change name

Changed its name to the name, both adults and minors, as long as the name meaning, unlucky, must abandon with other.Name is quadratic shape of the self, is planning for a better life.

Sun Xiangzhong renamed the qin and han dynasties, Su Ruifen suri, the name was changed to port name to Jackie chan, Chen He Jiana changed its name to Anita mui, name of Andy lau, zheng was renamed Adam cheung siu-chow creation, coco lee changed its name to coco lee, rosamund kwan was renamed rosamund kwan, renamed Liang Bi branches gigi leung, Xu Hong changed its name to lure valen hsu, Xiong Wei renamed the panda xiong, Zhang Shuqin renamed family, Xu Xiaochun renamed yuki, hu zixing renamed the cucumber...Plain black and white name once changed, there is a great deal of charm.

The name is every person born now, changed its name is a special case, not universal.But the name is actually the name, but the original has a name, on the basis of processed or changes, to turn the new name can have a richer connotation and practical significance.

Cases of changed through the ages is not, but the name carefully, before the change must verify the name of good or ill luck, fierce will change, will keep unchanged.Otherwise to bad, luck is likely to be worse and worse, it is better to do not change.

Child was born or name as a child, can not participate in opinion of your own, mostly decided by family or friends or relatives.So the name may not be a love for the child, also not necessarily can reflect individual character and ambitions.Therefore, may need to change name when he grows up.

Renamed the situation is more complex.Have a plenty of pure don't like the name of the past and to switch to the new name.Villages in previous years and even now, people still have to name the child ugly name custom.Children grow up, especially after reading that name offensive, indecent, thus the name again.Sometimes themselves, sometimes is to help parents take the initiative to please the name.Life often can see such a situation: a child was called iron eggs, younger sister, when I come back to the county school, has turned into a strong, aid.Again, for example, uncle had called "ZhongSheng" of lu xun, Beijing dialect pronunciation "ZhongSheng" the same as the "living beings", is used to refer to all living animals, contains call names mean, so he doesn't want to use, hard to change a name - ".

Someone changed the name, not necessarily because formerly known as feudalism, is vulgar, and think of a more meaningful name.Such as "ping" some girls feel like "flower" is not good enough, then change a new name, or remove the name of this kind of words, leaving another meaning better.Hui ping, for example, to get rid of ping words, into a single a word "hui".This kind of name, motivation lies in the pursuit of beauty, name is trying to make his name and his aesthetic pursuit, and contribute to the aesthetic ideal of society.

For accurate, bright surface now known as the main ambitions, interests, had its name changed, the proportion is probably the biggest of all.Parents, family named children, often without their feelings and expectations of children, and these are not necessarily can accord with the child's emotional desire, so things have changed its name to.Such as wu zetian, the article analyzes the change name is.Act, and as the song dynasty LiuKai young han yu, later renamed, can think don't monarch path, the other to open the door.Modern female revolutionary qiu jin, formerly known as qiu jin, the women nickname yu gu.Later to show the ambition of woman not far behind, remove the word "leap" in the name, from number "JingXiong" again "no woman".

Changes of the era of blustery, rapid, different times have different characteristics, some people in order to show its ambition and choice of ideal, to the name as "name" and "will" effect, usually resolutely choose name.

Such as the revolution of the late qing dynasty, devoted himself to have changed its name after the revolutionary ranks.CAI yuanpei is the clearance jinshi, the academician courtyard, compiling the word crane.After thought transformation, change the word people, expressed as a relic of Chinese people.Xu beihong was Xu Shoukang, a famous Chinese painter.His childhood is not good, didn't go to regular school, but loves painting at an early age.In order to make a living in society, often drudge he wanted very much to enter "foreign school" reading, can home does not have the money for himGo to schoolAnd no one willing to lend money to him.He is deeply, social change in temperature, no future, can't help sadness, like the swan goose can moan, so he changed his name to "xu beihong," determined to push oneself study, on their own to have a foothold in the world.

And 30 s of the 20th century, all sorts of western ideological trend blow to China, so someone should be renamed "the wind".Famous writer ba jin formerly known as lee Fei, when studying in Paris began believed in bakunin and kropotkin anarchism, so from the two names from each end of the word today.Educator tao xingzhi from a teenager they admire wang yangming's unity, saying, so named macmillan.After leaving the United States, he is influenced by experimental, think that everything is not known, and should then known, then changed its name to the relevant.

Most of name is voluntary, but does not rule out the passive situation.More Chinese homophone, accidentally wrote a ghost word, is not correct, so ahead of the name is also have.The name is so well-known geologist li siguang.Li siguang formerly known as Li Zhong Daniel, at the age of 14, he to Japan to study abroad, accidentally in the passport name column filled people age "14".Passport can't be altered, so he will add pen "ten" the character to "li".But the name "li si" indecent, he looked up to see "light is four table" HengBian, just after the word "four" and a "light" word."Four light" has the meaning of "square light", is a good name.This name, we each person's life will always find one or two.However, this passive name was not main ShiLiaoSuoJi.

In addition, there is also a must to change the situation.In the feudal era, the emperor likes and dislikes is related to a person's life.The emperor Lao tze don't like the name change.

Ancient people not only to avoid living now and before the king, taboo and taboo after death but also avoid the later emperors, of which historians in the tang dynasty, the author of the book "liu zhi-tong can say is, unfortunately, he changed several times by taboo.

He formerly known as liu zhi-tong, first from the tang dynasty lung-chi lee up (the "base" and "a few" is a homophone) instead Liu Zixuan, due to avoid again after the qing dynasty emperor kangxi qing imperial house?Taboo hiowan yei, renamed liu zhi-tong.And at the same time because the Liu Zixuan name has been around for almost one thousand years ago, not disappear, then was renamed Liu Ziyuan.So, liu zhi-tong, Liu Zixuan, Liu Ziyuan three one, I don't know under the jiuquan history: how did you feel after you know!

So, for the emperor, in order to give his subjects to reduce the trouble by taboo, more sensible approach is to narrow the scope of the taboo, such as emperor taizong of an ordered: "its official number, name, public or private Wen Ji, have the people of the two words of discontinuity, taboo is not to be."

In ancient times in the old society, imperial power is supreme, the name of the emperor also blessed.Not only is everyman, princes and princes, taboo is immortal.

Such as myths and legends in the moon palace fairy constant moths, "constant", because from the Chinese emperor name also changed its name to the goddess of the moon.Again such as compassion embodiment, an avalokitesvara of mercy, because of the "world" and the emperor taizong on account of "the same", tang dynasty has been from the word "world" and "avalokitesvara" for short.

Today, people's name, the name is already out of the shadows of the royal aristocrats taboo, obtained the real freedom.Others, changed its name to hidden identity, life, there are two main types.

One is due to avoid gone with anonymity.Such as the early han name zhang liang, this is a surname in South Korea, is ji.Due to qin han, after the collection of wu family broken countries hate in one zhang liang, has never to take vengeance, finally to assassinate qin shi huang, vice car in the job, make the qin shihuang started out in a cold sweat.Good to evade capture, but the surname as zhang.

Like the Ming and qing dynasty famous political activists, philosopher, natural scientists with intelligence, higher than the sky, who claimed to take the knowledge of ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign cooked in a furnace, invented the ages do not break.But because of its early treacherous court official by wei chung-hsien figurehead RuanDaCheng framed, had to zhejiang, fujian and other places, and two abandoned house five variable names.He called Wu Shi male, foolish people, square with intelligence, wisdom, etc, and has known as wong wisdom, medicine five old, fushan smile weng, such a fool, mustard, black chun road flyover, interest rates to pay off swim, live by the world to the birth of seclusion.

The name was changed and the examples, such as the end of the qin dynasty Chen Yu, zhang ears, such as hole Fu had hidden name and inhibition and float.

Another kind is to engage in some kind of special activities, to adapt to the complex and changeable environment, and hidden identity, change their names.

The famous writer MAO dun, formerly known as Shen Yanbing.The northern expeditionThe warThe failure of his thoughts on the enormous vibration.He therefore by the original literary criticism work begin writing activity.To illustrate the inner contradictions and pain, he published the novel "disillusion" agency by his pen name is "contradiction", since "novel monthly" thinks "contradiction" is clearly a pseudonym, afraid of reactionaries attention will make trouble, so "spear" for the "MAO" instead.

To rename the hidden identity, origin and are used only in special circumstances.Maintain concealment is the whole purpose of this name, therefore, as long as the change of name after can achieve this goal, it can be said to be a good name.

People often because of the change of ideology and identity change name, the name of the process, they will have different name for the identity of the different attitude.Such as common people changed more casually, intellectuals have changed, with passion and lofty ideals renamed leaders renamed withdrawn.

Some names Kings and princes, in the history of our country began to is not very elegant.Such as the emperor gaozu liu bang nickname liu three, cao cao's nickname ", zhu yuanzhang nickname heavy eight, and so on.

In modern times, because thought changed its name and identity change phenomenon is commonplace.Enlightenment thinkers and translator yan fu, formerly known as dry body, after the change ZongGuang, who later renamed after his political, tend to be more conservative in thought, and writing with great concentration, and take the wild man.Its ideological understanding trajectory in his name on the vivid embodiment.
