How did the ancients name it?

The ancients took many names according to the classic contents, such as The Book of Songs, The Analects of Confucius, The Spring and Autumn Annals and so on.

In the Song Dynasty, there was a famous scholar named Han Gang, whose name was Yu Kun, and he quoted from Qian's Li Jinsheng Water, Jade Out of Kun Gang. Such a name looks very stylish and meaningful.

In fact, this is the same as looking up a word in Xinhua dictionary and then naming a child according to its meaning, but the ancients paid more attention to it.

There are also children named according to the five elements. If the fortune teller says that the child is short of water, he will add Chinese characters with water when he takes her watch.

The theory of five elements was very important in ancient times, and it was summarized in Confucian school. Confucianism has a history of more than 2,000 years in China, and I am deeply impressed by them.

Finally, they will give their children a nickname, which is sloppy and must be humble, because the ancients thought it was only in this way that it was easy to feed, otherwise it would be easy to die.
