The era of more than 300000 people called "Zhang Wei" has gone away. Although a name is a title, it is not very important, but a name is also the epitome and witness of an era. Does your child's name belong to the pop money of this era?
According to the recently released name big data report "panoramic report of names in 2019 - the first quantitative revelation of Chinese naming quality" (abbreviated as' report '), the most popular names of newborns in 2018 are' Zimo '(male baby) and' Yinuo '(female baby); the most popular pronunciation of male baby's name is' Y & igrave; ch & eacute; n', and the pronunciation of female baby's name is' y ǔ T & oacute; ng '.
The report also analyzes that the gender discrimination of the 'post-10' names is becoming more and more distinct, and the proportion of 'men from women's names' and' women from men's names' has declined. In addition, since 2014, the proportion of newborns trying to 'new compound surname' (father surname + mother surname) has also increased.

The report also selected the 'year word' and 'year name' from 2018.
The male baby's name is' Yi 'and' Shengrui ', while the female baby's name is' Tong' and 'Yutong'.
According to the analysis of the report, "Yi" has the meaning of bright and handsome, with its own positive energy and spirit. Many parents favor it as a name, hoping that the baby will be bright and smooth. As for the word "Tong", the report says that, unlike the "red" and "Dan" in the 1960s and 1980s, which dominated parents' thinking, the new generation of parents pay more attention to life and parenting, and place a call for "burning" in their children's names.
At the same time, the most popular naming words used by parents tend to be more similar. But every year, the name of newborn has its own characteristics.
According to the report, in 2014, the names of "Junteng", "junchi" and "Zijun" rose rapidly. In 2015, Ziyang, Muyang and Zipeng were popular. In 2016, the year of the monkey is popular with Zilin, Johnson and Sen. The most significant new word of the year of the rooster in 2017 is a group of unique 'rice family army': rice, rice, seed and grain. In the year of the dog in 2018, the most popular names for parents are 'Xin, Xinyuan, Xinze, jinzhe, Jinze and Jinhao', and the words' Xin, Qin, Xin, Xi and Hong '.
'the Zodiac has a great influence on the people. It can be seen from the report that the biggest variable in the naming trend every year is the zodiac. However, the nature of the zodiac is an animal chronology, which does not mean that the year of birth is similar to the zodiac of that year. As for the name of the zodiac on the Internet, it's far fetched. It's artificial and eye-catching. There's no scientific basis for it. "Zhang Ruxin, publisher of the report and founder of qimingtong, said.
Surging news learned that the basic data of this report comes from the platform's 43.4 million newborn naming intentions from 2010 to 2018 and some historical data before 2008.
The quality of naming has been improved continuously
What are the naming qualities of different times and regions?
The macro measurement of the naming quality of a specific group has always been a difficult problem. To this end, we have worked out a measure - name concentration. The lower the concentration, the better the diversity of names, and to some extent, the higher the quality. "Chen Jun, founder of qimingtong, who led the big data analysis of the report, said.
The report shows that: since the 1960s, the quality of newborn naming in China has been gradually declining, and it has continued to rise after reaching a node. Since the 1990s, the quality of naming has increased. After the 1990s, the quality of naming has not changed by leaps and bounds. By 2017 and 2018, the quality of newborn naming has improved significantly again.
The report also revealed the differences in naming quality in different regions.
In 2017 and 2018, Fujian and Shanghai are the best places for boys to name. The best quality of nvbao's name is Fujian, and the other is Guangdong. The western regions represented by Guizhou, Gansu and Sichuan, and the northeast regions represented by Liaoning and Heilongjiang are not ideal in terms of naming quality.
According to the report, the factors causing the above differences are complex, among which economic driving is one of the obvious reasons. Areas with rapid economic development and vitality tend to be more inclusive and have more diverse population composition, which provides a favorable environment for the development of name diversity.
'people's education level and cultural level are rising, and society is becoming more and more diversified, which will be reflected in the name. Zhang Ruxin said that compared with the first report released by the agency before, the second report focuses more on the in-depth and macro analysis of the naming quality. With the gradual improvement of Chinese parents' cultural literacy and ideological openness, parents are more innovative and diversified in their names, and the names of newborns are becoming more and more diversified. The improvement of naming quality has become an overall trend.
The phenomenon of "father surname plus mother surname" rising quietly
The report also analyzes the phenomenon that women name men and men name women.
According to the report, the most serious cases of "men name women" and "women name men" are in the 1990s and 2000s, while the gender discrimination of "after 2010" names has become more and more clear. The proportion of "men from women" has decreased by half, and the proportion of "women from men" has also decreased by one third. People are worried that the trend of "more feminine" and "more men" does not exist.
Changes in the proportion of new multiple surnames in China from 2014 to 2018
In recent years, we can also see a new phenomenon rising quietly and rapidly: the first name is the father's surname plus the mother's surname. This is a phenomenon reflecting the improvement of women's status and gender equality. According to Zhang Ruxin, the new compound surname of "father surname + mother surname" is also the focus of the report.
The report shows that from 2014 to 2017, the proportion of newborns trying to 'new compound surname' increased rapidly, doubled in four years, and the number of boys reached 2.51%. Female babies also rose to 1.73%.
In terms of geography, Yunnan is the first place for "new Fuxing". In Beijing Tianjin Hebei, the three eastern provinces, Shandong and Henan, the proportion of attempts has been lower than the national average for many years.
In view of the new compound surname, the report also found two special phenomena.
First of all, the proportion of boys with new multiple surnames has been significantly higher than that of girls, but the proportion gap between the two continues to narrow. According to the report, this reflects that in some parents' consciousness, the concept of "son preference" still exists, but the degree is decreasing.
Secondly, from 2014 to 2017, the proportion of new multiple surnames is rising, but in 2018, the proportion of new multiple surnames is declining for both boys and girls. According to the report, this phenomenon is related to the change of fertility policy: with the full liberalization of the two child policy, some families with an open mind begin to let one of their children directly follow their mother's surname, which leads to a decrease instead of an increase in the proportion of new surnames.
The phenomenon of "awkward names" behind the hottest four character names
With the phenomenon of new multiple surnames, four character names also occupy a place in the current.
The report shows that since 2018, the willingness of four character names (including compound surnames and new compound surnames) accounts for about 0.29% of girls (including compound surnames and new compound surnames) and about 0.35% of boys.
Among the four character names, the compound surname 'Ouyang' is the most common. After excluding multiple surnames, from 2017 to 2018, the four character name most remembered by male parents is' glory of the king '. The four character names that parents of baby girls think of most in recent three years are all 'yangliuyiyi'.
According to the report, the fact that 'King's glory' topped the list of male treasure's four character names was obviously influenced by the 'online game craze', and the 'Wang' surname was also a big surname in China, giving such parents more opportunities to name it like this.
The report points out that the first four character name of female baby comes from the book of songs, China's first book of poetry. For two consecutive years in 2016 and 2017, the "Chinese poetry conference" broadcasted by CCTV set off an upsurge of poetry appreciation in the society, and also affected some young parents who are naming.
However, while four character names are opening up the new world of naming, they also pose a higher challenge to parents' naming standards: if they are ingenious and appropriate, they will be amazing. If not properly grasped, the proportion of disobedience will be higher. Such as' the glory of the king ',' His Royal Highness', 'Lamborghini' and 'thanking Lord long'are the representatives of the new generation of embarrassing names.
'There's nothing wrong with the fact that the name maker wants to pursue a unique personality. But if we don't understand the role of name in parenting guidance and image building, and can't control the words well, it's easy to deviate and turn the child's name into a word game. Zhang Ruxin thinks.
