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.

合百草兮实庭，建芳馨兮庑门。
Gather a hundred herbs to fill the courtyard; set up fragrance at the side doors.
Making something stand, rather than making more of it.

Scale of concern, not a rank.
「国」在名字里是格局，不是官职。

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.
