higher than Wen, Zhang Shangmingzhu, Liu Yang, golden age, Liu Qin Zi Xuan... The national census is being carried out, and a number of census workers have found that many newborns, especially children under the age of 5, use their parents' surnames as "compound surnames", and the names of more than 4 words or more account for nearly half of the names.
this afternoon, the reporter learned through census personnel that more than 700 children under 3 years of age in the Tianqiao District Yellow River area and Qinghe section were nearly 60% of the names of "compound surname". In addition, the reporter learned through the household registration department, the city's children under 5 years old, more than 4 words accounted for nearly half of the name, and showed an increasing trend.
many parents like to use artificial "compound surnames" when naming newborns. Census clerk Liu Min said that in the area she was responsible for, more than half of the names of the newborns were four words, putting their parents' surnames together, followed by a good name. A child is called "Li Yu Hao Xiang", for example, a child is called "Li Yu Hao Xiang", the child's father surname Li, his mother's surname, Hao Xiang is the meaning of great success; the 1.5 year old boy calls "golden official", his father's name is Huang, his mother's name is gold, and the name of the child contains his family's wishes - not only the money is good, but the official's name is good. The way is better.
parents of some "artificial family name" newborns say the use of this "compound surname" allows the family name to be fused to the child, and the name of more than four words can also avoid the name. Mr. Liu, the father of the girl Liu Qinyifang, said, "my surname is Liu, his wife, Qin, is a only child. The family name or the surname of the father often leads to the argument, and the name of the child is placed in the child's name, and both sides are satisfied."
Mr. Zhang, who has just been a father, has not yet given a household account. The task of the family is to give the child a good and meaningful name. "Now that there are too many names, my surname is very common, so I want to add my wife's surname to my child's surname. No name, and meaning. "
Liu Min told reporters that during the process of her participation in the census, she met 11 Liu Min people so far. She said that some of the boys' name "Hao", "Yu", "Xuan", "Xiao" and other words have a very high frequency, the girl's name with "Meng", "sensitive", "Han (Han)" is also very much. "
in the interview, the reporter learned that, in addition to the newborn parents themselves design" artificial compound surname ", let the name of the name of the name of the child, there are a number of young parents to the Internet for their children to name, to seek unique. For example, the 5 word "Xue Yue Po Yu Xiao" means that children are like the stars and stars, but they also want to fade away.
to this, Shandong University sociology scholar Gao Yang analysis, China has only inherited the father's name since ancient times. Now many mothers have asked to add their surnames into their children's names, showing the status of women at home and the promotion of power, and more importantly, the parents now attach great importance to the children.
