For celebrities, changing a good name is very important, and some people even change it three or four times, and the reasons for changing their names are also strange. In the latest issue of "Happy Base Camp", Zhang Yuqi talked about the reasons for her name change, and also on the hot search.
Zhang Yuqi's original name was Zhang Shuang, a very common name, and her mother gave her this name because the day she was born was LiQiu, taking the meaning of golden wind to send cool and autumn high.
Later, after watching more TV, the mother and daughter saw the publicity of various sanitary napkins, and the word "cool" was at every turn, such as dry and comfortable... It was really indecent and annoying, so I was forced to change my name.
The name Zhang Yuqi is still very good, but the name "Zhang Shuang" is more in line with her fierce personality. There are also netizens who have changed her name for her, otherwise it is not cool to see the word "cool" now, after all, a cool is 2.08 million.
Like Zhang Yuqi, Na Ying, who participated in "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves", has a very good match with people and is very domineering. Na Ying was a Manchu and his original surname was Yehenara, but many Manchus later changed their surnames to Han, as did Guan Zhilin, Guan Xiaotong, and Tong Dawei.
In his early years, Na Ying changed his name to Su Ran for his career. At that time, Hong Kong and Taiwan stars were very popular, but mainland record companies could not come, and there was a more economical approach - copycats. At that time, Su Rui was very hot, Na Ying was still a nameless person, but her voice was very similar to Su Rui, she was favored by the record company, let her cover Su Rui's songs, the tape cover was capitalized "Su Rui New Song", only in an inconspicuous place marked "Su Ran singing", this Su Ran is Na Ying, after all, it is the name of the cottage, Na Ying sometimes uses the name "Su Bing", which looks more like.
The reason why Na Ying wears sunglasses on the cover is not to be cool, but sunglasses can cover the facial features, and with a shiny short hair, you can look like Su Rui 95%.
(True Su Ruizhen's "Unchanging Heart" is like this)
The cottage road could not go on all the way, and later that Ying Bai Gu Jianfen was a teacher, and he used his real name to break into the music scene.
The name change is more unexpected is Zhang Jiayi, everyone is most familiar with the name of Zhang Jiayi, before changing to Zhang Jiayi, his name has become a household name, and then changed, it is difficult to accept at once, fortunately or homophonous, that is, many netizens occasionally see that they think that the crew typo.
In fact, when Zhang Jiayi first debuted, his name was still Zhang Xiaotong, for example, in the movie "Ambush" starring Feng Gong in 1997, he signed Zhang Xiaotong.
Since about 2005, he has changed his name to Zhang Jiayi, and the name looks much more mature and atmospheric. In the following 15 years, Zhang Jiayi's career soared, becoming a recognized powerful actor, and his status was irreplaceable.
But I didn't expect that last year he changed his name again and changed it to Zhang Jiayi. At the age of 50, he obviously did not change his name for career reasons, after all, his career is like a day in the day, and changing his name will bring a lot of inconvenience.
Excluding other reasons, Zhang Jiayi's name change should be mainly due to physical reasons. Zhang Jiayi has suffered from ankylosing spondylitis for many years, and this disease cannot be cured, and can only rely on drugs to alleviate pain. So far, Zhang Jiayi still often bends over and hunches his back, and if it deteriorates, he may not be able to shoot the scene.
The word "benefit" is a beautiful expectation for his future.
Another one who has changed his name at an age is You Yongzhi, who circled a wave of fans by relying on the role of Li Dayou in "Mountains and Seas" last year, and also won the Best Supporting Role Award for Magnolia by relying on this role. You Yongzhi used to be called You Yongzhi, but he changed his name to You Yongzhi six years ago when he was 51 years old.
As the name suggests, You Yong is "brave and unskillful", and You Yongzhi is "wisdom and courage double complete", which means much better.
Many stars in the entertainment industry have changed their names, in fact, because they do not want to use their real names to "walk the rivers and lakes", and they all debut with their stage names. However, some stars use the real name, but it is misunderstood as a stage name, the biggest misunderstanding is Andy Lau, many people, including fans, think that his real name is Liu Furong, a very local name.
In fact, he was named Andy Lau as soon as he was born, and the birth certificate also wrote Andy Lau, because he was born in a large family, and when he was in elementary school, his father gave him a lot of sustenance, so he changed his name to Liu Furong.
Later, Andy Lau simply used his real name. The name is so elegant that many people think it is a stage name.
Another star changed his name, related to Andy Lau, he is Ouyang Zhenhua. Ouyang Zhenhua's original name was Ouyang Yaoquan, and many Hong Kong stars have asked the master to change his name, and his name is also pointed out by the master. At that time, the Hong Kong showbiz circle was occupied by the "Hua" generation, such as: Andy Lau, Wong Ri-wah, Wu Qihua, Ren Dahua...
"Zhenhua" is to shock away all kinds of Hua, coincidentally, later Andy Lau and Huang Rihua really left TVB one after another, Ouyang Zhenhua ran for 10 years, and finally became the protagonist, began to become popular, and later became TVB's "ratings blessing".
Although some Hong Kong stars are well-known, they want to take a step forward in their careers and have also embarked on the road of changing their names, such as Yang Yi, who has starred in popular Hong Kong dramas such as "The Good Moon of the Storm House", "Gong Xin Ji", "Mingyuan Wangzu" and so on, but in the following eight years, the response of the works has been mediocre.
Yang Yi's husband Luo Zhongqian is also similar, small and famous, tepid.
Last year, Yang Yi entered the age of 40 and pulled her husband together to announce the name change: Yang Yi changed to Yang Qianyao, luo Zhongqian changed to Luo Ziyi.
This name is very difficult to change, "Akane" is still a polysyllabic word, which is very unfavorable for people to remember and spread. Judging from Yang Yi's statement, it is obvious that this name was also pointed out by the master, aiming to make everything in a better direction for the whole family.
According to Hong Kong media excavations, the names of the two reflect the beautiful expectations for career and family, and it is said that the master spent 400,000 yuan.
Lin Yun was discovered by Zhou Xingchi to star in the "Mermaid" fire, but her name is too similar to Han Xing Lin Yun'er, many people think that she took this name to rub heat, now everyone knows, her original name is Fei Xia, a more earthy name.
However, according to Lin Yun, she was a flat model in her early years, when the agent wanted to make a recommended PPT for her, she did not dare to use her real name, so as not to be recognized by the teacher and parents, so she let the agent pick up one at will, and the agent started Lin Yun.
Later, Lin Yun wanted her agent to write her real name on the cast list, but the agent refused, and she let it go.
Name, representing the family or their own good expectations, star name change has a variety of reasons, but mainly to make the career to a higher level, to a certain extent, the name change is still a bit useful, but the role is minimal, appearance, strength, luck is more important.
