What are the customs of Gaochun?

Miss the customs of Gaochun's hometown! In recent years, I have gradually found that some customs and cultures around me have begun to degenerate, such as bodhisattvas and dancing lanterns. The government does not allow it, saying that superstitious activities are not allowed! I am very unhappy to hear this news, so why not hold it back? This is the culture of Gaochun for hundreds of years and cannot be forgotten by such people. I thought I participated in the vault lantern when I was a child, and I thought it was quite fun. Looking back now, I can't help but miss it! What I want to say now is that we Gaochun people can't treat the unique culture of our hometown like this, but we still maintain the excellent culture of 5000 years! I hope everyone can talk about their own ideas and naming methods. First, arrange the names by word generation. Gaochun people generally have "big names" and "nicknames" (also called "milk names"), just like scientific names and milk names. Named after a substitute word, it is a big name, that is, a title used in formal occasions. Something like this: 1. Pay attention to the taboo (1). The pronunciation of the name is never the same as or similar to the name of the elder in the family. (2) Avoid the collision between the names of close relatives. 2. Choose a name carefully, and often ask a "gentleman" or a prestigious person to take it. In society, people often use the name given by someone to raise their social status. Names rarely use a single word. Generally, the first word of a name is a substitute word (there are also special cases, such as the substitute word of Han surname "Xian", but "Xian" is at the bottom, which may be related to the meaning of the word. Another word added is not casual. There are two situations: (1) meaningful and elegant. Such as "building, beam, tree", "wisdom, faith, honesty, courage and strictness", or words in Confucian classics. ⑵ Named after five elements. In the old days, people used this name to reconcile the surplus and deficiency of yin and yang, so as to achieve both rigidity and softness and turn adversity into luck. Through numerology calculation, that is, taking the year, month, day and time of birth as the "four pillars" and heavenly stems and earthly branches as the "birth date", this paper calculates the deficiency of human five elements, and takes remedial measures in naming: A, form complement. According to the situation that the glyph structure is missing five elements, remedy it. If there is a lack of wood, use the word "wood" to name it, such as forest, tree and wood. B, which means reconciliation. Fill in the blanks in the five lines according to the meaning of the words. If there is a lack of wood, you can use the words Xiu, Xiang and Lian. C, quality supplement. Fill in the blanks according to the nature of things. If there is a shortage of wood, you can use the words spring, green and benevolence as the names. D. kekang. One of the five elements is often easily broken, and measures must be taken to restrain it. If the wood is strong, it must be named after the word Jin Kezhi, which belongs to gold. 3. Women don't replace their names with words, and there are no big names in the original. After her death, the epitaph is like "Xu's mother (door) Yang ..." And so on, that is, this woman is Xu's mother, surnamed Yang; But then the situation changed. Women from prestigious families or intellectual families began to take names, and ordinary people followed suit, so women became famous. In addition, intellectuals or prestigious people generally have font sizes, but ordinary people don't. Second, the suffix "1" with the nickname "Tou" is named by color: Qingtou, Blackhead, Blue Tou, Red Tou and Green Tou. There are no yellow heads and bald heads in the name. Yellow heads and bald heads are taboo or have bad intentions. 2. Named by numbers, in order of size: big head (no "one head"), small head (individual "two heads"), three heads, four heads, five heads, six heads, seven heads and eight heads. Generally speaking, not many people have nine children. Moreover, the homonym of "nine heads" and "turning around" (in some areas of Gaochun) are unlucky, so there is no name of "nine heads", let alone "ten heads" (homophonic and "thief heads"). Big brother is called "big head" instead of "No.1 head", and his pronunciation is loud and clear. The last habit is called "old man". 3. Take physiological characteristics or properties as an example: big head and small head (these two names sometimes have the function of distinguishing the old from the young, and sometimes they are named just because the big head is small. ), new head, old man, long head, square head, flat head. There is no "tip" Sharp, in Gaochun dialect, refers to people who like to take advantage of small things or dig deep into their own interests. 4. Take materials as an example: tin head, silver head, golden head, wooden head, water head, fire head and jade head. There seems to be no "copper head" or "iron head", and there is no "rustic head" (there is a word called "rustic head" or "rustic brain" in Gaochun dialect, which is mostly derogatory, meaning straightforward personality and blunt attitude. 5. Take the names of seasons as an example: spring head and autumn head, which rarely mean "winter head" (homophonic with "squatting") or "summer head" (homophonic with "head under head" or "head under head"). 6. Take animal names as examples: dragon head, tiger head, sheep head and duck head, but there is no "chicken head" or "pig head". In addition, although Gaochun people are often named after "dogs", there is no "dog head". Dog heads and pig heads are very derogatory. 7. Take flowers and trees as an example: chrysanthemum head, pine flower head, wood, orchid head, cotton head, vegetable head and rice head, without "flower head" ("flower head Laozi" is a derogatory term in Gaochun dialect. The original refers to the Yuan Tatar, that is, every 65,438 +00 households in the Yuan Dynasty provided for one Yuan Tatar, who was invited once a year on August 15th. This person was called "Flower Head Laozi". The latter refers to people who are extremely picky and difficult to serve. 8. Take the feeling as an example: the sky is sweet, the head is spicy, and the head is fragrant, without bitterness, stink, sour and slippery. Gaochun people's nicknames with "head" have no deep meaning, and they are often called casually or even varied. Slightly classify it to clarify the occasional cultural and psychological orientation of "not casual" in "casual". Thirdly, according to birth weight, nicknames are "seven pounds" and "eight pounds", some are called "five pounds" and "six pounds", and some are rare. Animals are called ducks, kittens, calves, rabbits, sheep, etc. Instead of pigs, chickens and geese. Among them, dogs are the most distinctive ones, such as those born in the twelfth lunar month called "Winter Dog" and "La Dog", the second named "Puppy" and the third named "Three Dogs", and so on. Probably dogs are the most common in the local area, with high survival rate and easy to raise, so I hope my children can grow up safely with a dog name. 5. Names are named after their physiological characteristics. This name is similar to a nickname. In other places, there are many names, such as "Wang Mazi", "Li Madman" and "Chen Lame", but the names of Gaochun people are different from them. They often live in groups and share the same surname, so they only take one keyword in their original names before their physiological characteristics, instead of their surnames. Such as hemp seed, cloud camel, spring cripple, and so on. 6. Take auspicious names as examples:,,, Qiu,, Song Shou, etc. Named after place names: Nanjing, Beijing, Suzhou, Changzhou, Hangzhou, etc. Take vegetables and fruits as examples: pumpkin and wax gourd. Nine, address a married woman by her birthplace or maiden, plus "old", which is the same as her name. For example: Gao Chunlao, Xiaba Lao, han cun Lao and so on. Ten, place names and "guy" refers to all foreigners, sometimes refers to a person (when both sides know), sometimes refers to (when uncertain). For example: Nanjing guy, Shanghai guy, Subei guy, etc. Eleven, in order to distinguish between the sexes, women's nicknames often add "Mutou" (girl) after the first word, while men add "Ye Ye" (boy). For example, women have-fat beauty head, black beauty head, red beauty head, blue beauty head, wax beauty head, good beauty head, fragrant beauty head, water beauty head and so on. Men have incense industry, multi-industry, cloud industry, construction industry, square industry, six industries and so on. Some people add "big", "small" or numbers before "beauty" and "employment". For example: Big Industry, Little Beauty Head, Three Industries, Four Beauty Heads, etc. "Fake Beauty Head" is an interesting and common nickname. "Beauty Head" is fake, so it is often used as a boy's name, just like today's "fake boy", that is, a girl. The cultural characteristics of Gao Chun's name naming are simple and convenient, seemingly random. But when we look at them, we will find that they come down in one continuous line with China's traditional culture: First, they have a strong sense of family, admire traditional culture and attach importance to winning big brands. Second, despise women. When a woman gets married without a name or loses her original name, she is called by her birthplace, which shows that a woman lacks social status and family status. Third, seek peace and health in the name of humble, but not the meaner the better, often considering the coordination with local culture, seeking good fortune and avoiding evil, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. If there is no "dog head" and "summer head", there are still many "blessings", "Lu", "longevity" and "happiness". Fourth, pay attention to the distinguishing function of "nickname", that is, its symbolic meaning is subordinate to its cultural meaning, which captures the essential meaning of the name. Specifically: (1) Pay attention to gender differences. (2) Pay attention to the difference between young and old. (3) Pay attention to the characters. (4) Finally, pay attention to good or bad luck and simple wishes. It should be said that there is no essential difference between the traditional naming and the current naming. Now people's names are more euphemistic, elegant and colorful. Therefore, we don't have to joke about the names of elders such as "dog" and "Chuntou". On the contrary, we should pay more attention to the names of elders, which is also a respect for Gaochun's vulgar culture and history. In this way, we will love Gao Chun even more. Of course, the traditional naming method of Gaochun people has its limitations, which is exactly what we need to discard. The author is pleased to see that Gaochun people have done a good job in this respect, and modern and traditional names are constantly ringing in their ears. As for the popular "foreign names" in some places, Gaochun people have no place to stand.
