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.

安ān · B
tier B

安定;安放。

To settle — a person, a house, a state.

修己以安人 In that order

修己以安人。

Cultivate yourself in order to settle others.

论语 · 宪问篇 · our translation
Three steps in a fixed order: oneself, then others, then everyone. The order cannot be reversed. 子路问君子,孔子答:修己以敬,修己以安人,修己以安百姓。顺序不能倒——先修自己,再安别人。
安人安定安之安民泰安
In a name

Yourself first, others after — in that order.

「安」是先修自己,再安别人。

引文校验:1/1 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」。

Character by character 逐字拆开看

A Chinese name is not two decorative symbols. For every character: what it means, which of the five elements it belongs to, how many strokes it takes to write, and how often it actually appears in 1,142,000 real Chinese names.

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.

ānT1 · ránT2
ānrán
Tonesān high and flat, rán rising
If you don't speak Chinese
  • rán — r sits between English 'r' and 'zh', and is not rolled

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.

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.
