What each character carries 逐字小传

Not a dictionary entry: what the character has meant in Chinese names, with the original line it comes from. Every quotation below is matched character-for-character against a versioned corpus shipped with this site. Where a page names a character's origin, that line is our own paraphrase of the standard dictionaries — it is not a quotation, and it carries no book title for that reason.

皓hào · B
tier B

白而发亮。

White, and bright with it.

1 处原典 · 1 部典籍 · 全部可核

白得发亮 White that catches light

朱唇皓齿,嫭以姱只。

Red lips and white teeth — lovely, and finely made.

楚辞 · 大招 · our translation
The 皓 here is the whiteness of teeth: not pallor, but a clean white that gives back light. 「皓」在这里是牙齿的白——不是苍白,是干净到发光的那种白。
皓月皓齿皓首皓月皓然明皓皓轩
In a name

A name takes 皓 for the shine, not for paleness.

名字取「皓」,取的是亮,不是白得没血色。

月yuè · B
tier B

月亮。

The moon — the same one seen from two places.

1 处原典 · 1 部典籍 · 全部可核

海上生明月 One moon, two places

海上生明月,天涯共此时。

The bright moon rises over the sea; from the ends of the earth we share this hour.

全唐诗 · 張九齡《望月懷遠》 · our translation
However far apart, it is the same moon. A name takes the sharedness. 张九龄写思念:月亮从海上升起来,隔得再远看的也是同一个。名字用「月」,取的是这个「共」。
明月月华月之望月明月
In a name

The same one, wherever you are.

「月」是隔多远都同一个。

引文校验:2/2 条在语料库中逐字命中(论语 · 孟子 · 大学 · 中庸 · 诗经 · 楚辞 · 全唐诗)。 没有可靠原典的字,我们宁可写「没有」。

How it sounds 怎么念

Mandarin is tonal: the same letters said on a different pitch are a different word. The line below is the pitch you actually travel while saying the name.

Is it a real name? 有多真

We checked it against a corpus of 1,142,000 real Chinese names — this is not a combination invented for the page.

The corpus describes how many people are actually called this. It is never used to judge whether a name is good.

How this score is built 评分怎么来的

How people will actually call you 别人会怎么叫你

A Chinese name is almost never used in full. In daily life it gets a prefix, a suffix, or is cut to the given name alone — and which one you get tells you how close the person thinks they are to you.

皓月Full name. Documents, a first introduction, anyone who is not yet a friend.
小皓 / 老皓Surname with a size prefix — 小 (little) for someone younger or junior, 老 (old) for a colleague who is senior. This is how a Chinese office usually separates two people with the same surname.
皓哥 / 皓姐Surname + ‘brother’/‘sister’. Warm without being intimate — a shopkeeper, a neighbour, or a colleague a few years older than you.
月Given name on its own. Family and close friends. An elder using just this is affectionate, not curt.

Patterns, not rules: what you are called depends on your age, the relationship, and the region. In the south you will also hear 阿 + given name between friends.
