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.

雅yǎ · B
tier B

正;合乎规范的;文雅。

Correct, refined — the register a thing is supposed to be in.

容则秀雅 Bearing, not decoration

容则秀雅,稚朱颜只。

Her bearing is refined and elegant; her face still holds its young colour.

楚辞 · 大招 · our translation
Here 雅 is the correctness of bearing, not airs. A name takes the fit, not the pose. 「雅」在这里是仪容的端正,不是「高雅」的姿态。名字用「雅」,取的是这个「看起来就该这样」。
雅正清雅雅之文雅清雅
In a name

Being what it should be, on sight.

「雅」是看起来就该这样。

琳lín · B
tier B

美玉。

Fine jade — heard before seen.

璆锵鸣兮琳琅 Jade you hear

抚长剑兮玉珥,璆锵鸣兮琳琅。

I stroke the long sword with its jade guard; the pendants ring — a chiming of fine jades.

楚辞 · 东皇太一 · our translation
琳琅 is the sound jades make against each other. A name takes both the stone and its ring. 「琳琅」是玉相击的声音。名字用「琳」,取的是玉,也取这个「有声音」的质地。
琳琅美玉琳之琳琅琼琳
In a name

The stone, and the sound it makes.

「琳」是玉,也是玉的声音。

引文校验:2/2 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」。

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.

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.
