Recently, Mr. Hao, a citizen of Wuhan, was happy to have a son. I wanted to follow the recommendation on the "Little Red Book" and add the character "琂" (yán) to the child's name. Unexpectedly, the word "琂" is a rare word, and if it is used in the name, the child will not be able to register on the household registration.
"It's good to consult in advance, otherwise it will add a lot of trouble to choosing a name. Mr. Hao was a little emotional.
On the 23rd, Mr. Hao told a reporter from the Yangtze River Daily that when the child was about to be born, he was thinking about how to choose a name. On "Little Red Book", he saw a blogger recommending the word "琂": "Others say that this character represents a beautiful stone like jade, which means that it is trustworthy and bright, and I think it is very suitable to name my son." ”
Considering that the word "琂" is not very common, Mr. Hao asked through the Wuhan city message board whether he could use this character to apply for a birth certificate and household registration. However, after inquiry, it was learned that the character "琂" is a rare character, and if it is used in the name, it will affect the child's household registration.
Mr. Hao's situation is not unique. Previously, some citizens inquired about whether the name of the character "莯" (mù) could be used for newborn household registration. The Population Brigade of the Donghu High-tech Public Security Bureau replied on the Wuhan city message board: After verification, the character "莯" is not within the scope of universal standardized Chinese characters, and it is a rare character, so it cannot handle the registration of newborns normally.
Search for "name" on platforms such as "Xiaohongshu", and you can see that there are not a few bloggers who recommend children's names, and at the same time, there are hundreds of recommended names. The words "琂" and "莯" appear in some "recommended catalogs". In a piece of content about whether the word "琂" can be registered on the household register, a netizen posted a birth medical certificate with the name of the word "琂".
The reporter consulted the Qingshan District Population Management Brigade on this. "Being able to get a birth certificate does not mean that you can get a household registration. According to the staff, the fonts involved in the two are not the same. If the child's name is unfamiliar when applying for the birth certificate, it may not be possible to register the child. At this time, the parents need to "change the child's name" and go to the hospital again to issue a medical birth certificate.
The staff reminded that in order to avoid the corresponding troubles, parents can pay attention to the WeChat public account of the "Hubei Public Security Government Service Platform" before choosing a name, and use the "rare word query" function in the micro-police convenience query.
The reporter logs in to the platform and uses the words "琂", "莯" and "莀" recommended on "Xiaohongshu" to query, and the system will prompt "There are rare words in the name". However, if you use a normal name search, the result will show that "the name does not have an obscure word, and it meets the conditions for household registration".
In addition, on the Wuhan city message board, there are many citizens who leave messages to inquire whether the newborn is not allowed to take a "two-character name", and the relevant departments have clearly replied, and there are no relevant regulations at present.
