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.
返景入深林，复照青苔上。
The low sun enters the deep wood and lights the moss again.
深林人不知，明月来相照。
Deep in the wood, no one knows I am here; the bright moon comes to keep me company.
A grove rather than a single tree: 林 gives the name a place to be, not just an object.
「林」在名字里不是一个字，是一片地方——它让名字有了可以待着的地方感。
硕人其颀，衣锦褧衣。
The tall lady, wearing brocade over a plain gown.
考槃在涧，硕人之宽。
He builds his hut by the stream; the great man is at his ease.
人莫知其子之恶，莫知其苗之硕。
No one knows the faults of his own son, nor how sturdy his own seedlings have grown.
Scale with substance inside it — not a big reputation, a full one.
「硕」是体量与充实：不是名声大，是里面有东西。
由也升堂矣，未入于室也。
You has climbed into the hall, but has not yet entered the inner room.
堂堂乎张也，难与并为仁矣。
How imposing Zizhang is — and yet it is hard to reach humaneness alongside him.
Open and upright: the door is open, and you can stand straight inside.
「堂」是敞亮正大：门开着，进得来，也站得直。
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.
We checked it against a corpus of 1,142,000 real Chinese names — this is not a combination invented for the page.
A lightweight model scores the name on five dimensions — without your birth chart. The full version re-scores it against your chart, explains every deduction, and shows every candidate it considered.
Wood, harvest, hall — from the wild to the house: shelter, a gathering, somewhere to sit.
从野外到家门：有林可依，有实可收，有堂可居。
The cards are rendered with real calligraphy fonts — the name is written, not drawn by an image model, so it can never be misspelt.
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.
