秋月
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.
自古逢秋悲寂寥，我言秋日胜春朝。
Since ancient times people grieve over autumn's emptiness; I say the autumn day beats a spring morning.
Clear and high rather than melancholy.
「秋」是清高，不是悲凉。
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.
The same one, wherever you are.
「月」是隔多远都同一个。
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.
- Every syllable has a close English equivalent — nothing here is hard to say.
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.
How this score is built 评分怎么来的
Five dimensions, each scored independently. Every bar below is a real computed value — the same rule set that generated the candidate list, not a separate "premium" model.
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.
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.
