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.
君子敬而无失，与人恭而有礼，四海之内皆兄弟也。
If a gentleman is careful and does not slip, and treats others with courtesy, then within the four seas all men are his brothers.
盈科而后进，放乎四海，有本者如是。
It fills every hollow before moving on, and reaches the four seas — that is what having a source looks like.
名声若日，照四海只。
A name like the sun, lighting the four seas.
Capacity rather than drama: everything can come in, and it does not become agitated.

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.
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.
the sea · The swallow brings spring and happiness — taken as one scene rather than three separate definitions.
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.
