After a long process of evolution, it has developed into a "name" that people are used to today. In ancient China, there was no name from the beginning, but a surname, followed by a name, a character and posthumous title. Ancient people had many names in their lives.

Each has its own purpose and different meanings. The word "surname" has left and right structures, from "female" to "life" and from "female". In matriarchal society, children only know their own mothers.

The text "The Analects of Confucius Wei Linggong": "A gentleman is ill and nameless." Shi Ji Shi Wan Biography Zhang Shu: "There is no doubt that it is difficult to establish a name and call it an elder."

"Biography of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Zhi and Ada", "The private name of the East House is called Yan Yue", and Pei Songzhi quoted the book "Biography of Yidu Old Life": "Before and after the house, the official butchered ten times, and the bus was levied three times, and the sages, sects, doctors and Taoism were all cited, and the name was particularly heavy."

Rui Mingxuan, the teacher of Zhouyi, said: Every mortal should have a surname and a first name, which is not only the primary information for people to enter the society, but also the main carrier for people to transmit social information. So from ancient times to the present, people cherish their surnames and first names, and cherish our surnames and first names.
