1794 When the Paris Teachers College was founded, it was jointly named by Moge, a master of descriptive geometry, and Laplace, a mathematician: Ecole Normale Superieure de Paris. Translated into English, it is the super normal school in Paris.

Normal was first translated into Japanese, using the Chinese character "normal". Beijing Normal University is the first university in China to link normal universities together, and normal universities in China have been using this name ever since.

Therefore, Fujian Normal University is naturally called Fujian Normal University.
