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.

仁rén · B
tier B

仁爱;爱人。

Humaneness — measured by what you do for others.

1 处原典 · 1 部典籍 · 全部可核

己欲立而立人 The measure of it

夫仁者,己欲立而立人,己欲达而达人。

The humane man: wishing to stand himself, he helps others stand; wishing to succeed, he helps others succeed.

论语 · 雍也篇 · our translation
An operational definition: wanting to stand, you help others stand. 孔子给「仁」下的可操作定义:自己想站住,就帮别人站住。名字用「仁」,取的是这个「推己及人」。
仁者里仁仁之仁和怀仁
In a name

Wanting to stand, you help others stand.

「仁」是想站住时也让人站住。

德dé · A
tier A

得之于心、行之于外的东西;品德、恩德。

What a person has taken into themselves and shows in action — character, and also the good one has received.

德不孤 Character gathers people

德不孤,必有邻。

Virtue is never alone; it is bound to have neighbours.

论语 · 里仁篇 · our translation
Six characters, one of the shortest claims in the Analects: what is good does not stay by itself — it attracts. 六个字,是《论语》里最短的判断之一:好东西不会自己待着,会把人聚过来。
润身 What actually improves you

富润屋,德润身,心广体胖。

Wealth adorns the house; virtue adorns the person — the heart broadens and the body is at ease.

大学 · 大学 · our translation
润 is a soaking-through kind of enrichment. Money decorates the house; 德 changes the person. That is the difference between 德 and talent. 「润」是渗进去的那种润:钱装点房子,德装点人本身。这是「德」和「才」最大的区别。
大德得其寿 The long consequence

故大德必得其位,必得其禄,必得其名,必得其寿。

Thus great virtue is sure to win its place, its reward, its name, and its length of years.

中庸 · 中庸 · our translation
The Book of Rites puts longevity last: position, reward and name are the course, long years the outcome. 《中庸》把「寿」放在最后,是说前三个是过程,寿是结果——德厚的人走得久。名字用「德」,这一层是老派的祝福。
厚德明德德音德明德厚德远德音
In a name

The part of a person that cannot be taken away from them.

「德」是一个人身上别人拿不走的那部分。

引文校验:4/4 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」。

仁是你对别人做的事,德是这件事做久了长在你身上的部分。

You have just seen what every character means, which element it belongs to, its source, and how many real people are actually called this. What Orient Pro adds is judgement: it casts your (or your child's) birth chart, screens every candidate character against it, and gives you the five-dimension score with every deduction explained, all the candidate names it considered, a printable report and a poster.

Meaning and scores are computed from our own character library and a deterministic nameology model — no AI guessing.
