In May 1942, the Yan'an Literary and Art Symposium
Small name, big clean!
Spring white snow? Too elegant for coffee? Lower Riba people? Is garlic too vulgar? Yang Azolu? Noodle rice boiled water? Well, it's generally still comfortable. This is also the middle way in the naming science. But I want to emphasize that we are not saying that drinking coffee is good or bad, nor is it saying that eating garlic is good or bad.
There is a cloud in the "Chu Ci" "Song Yu Answers the Question of the King of Chu": The King of Chu Xiang asked Song Yu, does mr. Sir have any hidden virtues? Why don't the people praise you so much? Song Yu said that there were singers in chu guoyin, and at first they chanted "Lower Riba people", and there were thousands of people in the country. When the singers sang "Yang A Xue Lu", there were only a few hundred people in the middle of the country. When the singers sang "Yangchun White Snow", there were only a few dozen people in the country. When the song adds some difficult skills, that is, "attracting merchants and carving feathers, mixing with flowing signs", there are only three people in the country. Song Yu concluded, "It is its Qu Mi Gao, its harmony mi widow."
People appreciate names, music, television, movies, and even books, most of which are "better in the ears, more suitable for the heart." This is especially evident in an environment where materialistic impetuosity is present. As far as the name is concerned, of course, taking names is learning, but the choice of names also requires a level, a level of public aesthetic level and interest, and even to slowly guide the improvement of this level, which needs to be considered.
The more artistic the name, the fewer people can appreciate it. I have to admit that this difference has a lot to do with the subjective taste of the appreciator, and sometimes it is difficult to get an objective and fair evaluation. As Ge Hong of the Western Jin Dynasty pointed out in the book "Guangyu": "It is very good to watch and listen, and it is difficult to love and hate." For those who are accustomed to listening to the song of Sangma Pushang and the voice of the Lower Riba people, of course, they cannot understand the noble elegance of Yangchun Baixue and Huangzhong Dalu. From this point of view, there is not much difference between ancient and modern.
"Snow singing with whom and who, the common sense is not understandable." A pluralistic world cannot be separated from "snow singing" and "common feelings". The more popular any music seems, the more supporters there are. This is the same as the fact that today's box office revenue is often the pop song concert. Of course, elegant art has its own value, and the longer the time, the more precious it is. At any time, there are called "snow singing", there are also many called "common feelings", today's snow singing may also become tomorrow's customs, today's customs may also become tomorrow's snow singing, this is perfectly normal.

Today, it seems that the names of army building, nation-building, aiding Korea, National Day, national strength, and wealth and strength are too popular. But since so many people call out in unison, which name does not convey the blessings of parents? In fact, the era is the biggest background of the name. To a large extent, this unconsciously pins on the common people a kind of family and country feelings of "the world rises and falls, and the pirate has the responsibility" and "the country is safe and the people are safe, and the common prosperity is shared". A few years later, the rather elegant Zi Ah Han Ah Noah Ah Chen, I am afraid it will be the same ending.
Of course, this is said from the perspective of historical changes. In terms of practical technique, the name of two words, one word if extremely delicate, the other is slightly lighter. For example, suppose there is a girl surnamed Li, Li Mengyao: quite tacky. Li Mengyao: Slightly better (but not very well). Li Mengyao: Not too cheesy (but I don't know what it means; or the eldest daughter?). Yes. Li Mengyao: This is very chic, very impressive, of course, dreaming of the emperor what is his old man going to do? This is also to be discussed. Purely from the impression given to people, it is many percentage points better than Li Mengyao.
Most people are ordinary people. There is no need to be ambitious. It is not too necessary to pursue the search of the whole network only one. A small range of small freshness will do. After all, people are not people who have fallen into the country, and they do not have to pursue a name that has turned upside down.

For example, a few names, for the reader, if you can throw bricks to enlighten the idea of one or two, it is naturally excellent.
Su mi xin, the word "see" as a name is rare. With "letter", there is ancient meaning, positive, elegant. Both trust and being trusted can be said, exhausting the magic of Chinese characters.
Xia Wenxi, some people may think that Wenshi is also a combination of meaningless words. But to associate with the "rhetoric" and "literary color" we often use to describe the chinese language with things in reality. The same is true of Wen Xi, the text is like a tide, the mood is very, and it is simple and catchy.
Yu Kewei. This is the name that was later changed, and the original name was Yu Yingxia. Obviously, the mood can be much higher, but it is allowed, only, only, as a juxtaposition structure to understand, it is very much the kind of virtual and mysterious mood in Chinese culture, as a girl, there is even more a kind of sentiment of wanting to say and be ashamed. But looking at the name is a little too light, but fortunately, the surname yu is rich, and the overall name is just right.
Fang Datong. Many people know that the name can not be made too big. What a Dragon Overlord or something... Is Datong big? Large, but can be used. Because this is Chinese the ultimate pursuit of society, like "beauty", even the ultimate vision can be used in the name. Fang Datong's Fang surname is also very interesting, Fang is just the meaning, just Datong, will be full of a best state, it is really like a chick breaking the nest like a hopeful.
Yan'an in 1944
In China in the 1940s, the great leader Mao Zedong tried to unify high art and popular culture. Chairman Mao Zedong said in his "Speech at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art" published in 1942, "Even if yours is 'Yangchun White Snow', since this is something that a small number of people enjoy for the time being, and the masses are still there singing 'Xia Riba people', then if you do not raise it and only care about cursing people, then how to scold is empty." Now it is a question of the unification of 'Yangchun White Snow' and 'Lower Riba People', and it is a question of improving and popularizing unification. Without unity, the highest art of any specialist will inevitably become the narrowest utilitarianism; to say that this is also Qinggao, it is only self-proclaimed Qinggao, and the masses will not approve it. ”
Nearly eighty years have passed, still deafening, in some cases do not distinguish between elegant customs, can not distinguish between elegant customs, elegant customs, elegant customs inverted field of name science, to absorb its nutrition, especially urgent and necessary!
