Chapter 17 Controversy over Names

Controversy over the name

Just when Yan Yongnong was smug, Wang Huilan poured a basin of cold water on his head: "I have never seen such a strange name, it sounds unpleasant, and it is awkward to shout." Those fashionable and beautiful words such as 'male, bright, and super ---' are useless for you?"

How can a God-given name be blasphemed by mortals? But Yan Yongnong could not give a full account of the origin of this name, because he believed that "God does not pick opportunities." He would not allow anyone to say that the name was half as good as that, and he regarded it as sacrosanct.

He was very angry: "If you can't speak, say less, no one will sell you as a pig." You don't know anything, your hair is long, and your knowledge is short!"

"Hey, where did I say bad, you? Ever since this kid came in the door, I don't think you've looked like you at all. You have put him on your forehead as God, and you have Him in your heart and in your eyes. Our mother and I have become people outside the circle, and we are becoming more and more unpleasant. It stands to reason that he is your son and my son, and I have a say in naming him. Even if this suggestion is not good, you can not listen to it, is it worth getting angry at your mother-in-law who has been with you for so many years and has served you for so many years? As far as your son is concerned, although it is important, don't leave me alone. The predecessors summed it up: 'A full house of children is inferior to a halfway couple'. Wang Huilan said gloomily.

Yan Yongnong knew that he was a little overdone, and what his wife said was not unreasonable, so he immediately turned around: "You are all my relatives, and I love you all the same." After all, children need more love and care from adults, so why should you be a mother and compete with a child for favor? You should also give him mother's love. ”

"Ask yourself, have I not cared enough for this boy since he came in?

"I don't think it's necessary to follow the trend of naming him like others, and what good is it for you to follow the fashionable words 'Xiong, Hui, and Chao' when others come up with them? Not only are they bad, but there are also many disadvantages! For example, there is a Yan Hui in his family, a Yan Hui in your family, and a Yan Hui in my family. If Yan Hui of his family violates the law, Yan Hui of your family and my family will be interfered with and will be included in the list of investigations. The so-called: 'There is no true faith on the ten miles road.' "People have spread the word about it, and Yan Hui of my family has broken the law, won't it ruin my son's reputation?"

"In this way, your name is unique in the world, and there is no one in the world with the same surname and the same name as your son. That's it, you spend days and nights trying to come up with a two-word name, which is more laborious than someone else's writing an article, and if there is someone with the same name and surname, you will have to work hard. ”

"Of course, I can't pack a ticket at all, but I believe it's much rarer than any 'super, glow', etc. People don't like to use words that are not commonly used, and there are fewer cases of the same name. ”

"It's a pity that the "Xinhua Dictionary" is distributed throughout the country, and there are countless millions of people in the world who want to come up with countless thousands of names, and they all have to come out from there. The words in it are limited, and he doesn't tell you when he uses it, and you don't tell him if you use it. I think that the 'Yan Bian Zhao' you named will also have millions of people, which means that the same name and surname are inevitable and unavoidable. A name is just a sign of a person, as long as the person is called as it should be. ”

"It's not just a matter of one call and one response, there are many people with the same name, then there are many responses. I always remember when I was studying in the town's high school, there were two female classmates named Wang Yan in the class. The teacher couldn't remember all the names of the more than 90 students in the class at once, so he asked the classmates to answer questions in class, and naturally chose the names he remembered. Shout Wang Yan to answer, what do you say? Stand up at the same time. Again, the head teacher asked Wang Yan to clean the cleaning area, but she didn't go to any of them. Later, the teacher made the decision and added one word to each of their names, the big one was called Wang Dayan, and the small one was called Wang Xiaoyan. You see, that's not good. People all over the world love to catch up with the trend, and everyone follows him like this, even to call the child. Why should people with completely different appearances, figures, and ages use the same name? Yan Yongnong sighed.

Yan Yongnong probably felt that the reason he found did not convince Wang Huilan to continue to cite a more convincing example: "In fact, everyone wants their name to be their own, and they don't want others to use the same name as themselves. Most people are very reluctant to have other people's names like their own. The math teacher in our class is named Zhang Yafei, and there happens to be a student named Zhang Yafei. What do you say, Mr. Zhang Yafei never called Zhang Yafei to answer questions or perform in front of the blackboard, and even paid little attention to Wang Yafei. Zhang Yafei also knew each other, never raised his hand to speak in class, and stayed away from the teacher. Later, Zhang Yafei changed classes. Look, teachers and students are very close, and two people have a lot of trouble because of the same name, and even get unhappy and break up, how bad it is! I don't want my son to have a common name that happens to be the same as his teacher's, so that his teacher doesn't love, care, or value him. In the future, he will go to work with the same name as his superiors and will not be promoted, his colleagues with the same name and will not be able to enhance friendship, and his subordinates will not be respected by having the same name. ”

"But from ancient times to the present, every person who comes to the world must have a name, like some historical literati such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Cao Xueqin, etc., some emperors such as Liu Bang, Li Shimin, Zhu Yuanzhang, etc., and some bad people such as Qin Hui, He Shen, Wang Jingwei, and so on. There are also some characters in the book: Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, and what Ximenqing, Pan Jinlian, etc., hey, countless people occupy two or three character names that will not be used by future generations. And what 'traitors, spies, devils', etc. are useless. And the people of the future generations are endless, endless, there will be endless people who have Taoism and have a good eye to become celebrities, and they will take up countless three words, and there are many free deaths, diseases, pains, ghosts, demons, and so on, and they will not be used. And the future generations are endless, endless, and there will be endless world-famous names or notorious names, so it will take up countless combinations of two or three words. But the words in the dictionary are limited, and the combination of two words and three words is also limited. Someday the names that are made up of those words in the dictionary will be used up. Then the future generations will not be able to come up with names if they don't repeat them, and they may not be able to use names?" Wang Huilan said.

There are only more than 10,000 words in the dictionary. From ancient times to the present, countless people have used these more than 10,000 words to form words, sentences, essays, and books, and continue to use those words to compose and compile books, as long as they don't plagiarize, and I haven't heard of any books written exactly the same as those written by others. Let me tell you, two or three words are not enough to make a name, and you can use four, five, six, or even more word names. It can be said that you can't use up the name for a while, so don't worry about anything for future generations. There are still more than 10,000 words spelled in China, while foreign countries only have 26 letters spelled together, so I don't worry about not being enough. Besides, isn't that word man-made? Human beings are constantly evolving, and people in ancient times were able to create words, and people in the future will be able to create words even more! Indeed, if those words are used up, new words can be created!"

"Gao Jian, Gao Jian, I will never be able to say that you, the one who went out to cultivate. ”
