A story about Li Bai's name

Li's preface to the collection of thatched cottage said: "Long Chu, fled to Shu. After referring to the plum tree, Bo Yang was born, surprised Chiang Kai-shek, and Chang Gung fell asleep, so he was born with a white surname and an ethereal white character. The world is called the essence of Taibai, and it is won. " Fan also recorded: "Public health, my late husband refers to heaven as a compound surname, and my late wife dreams of Chang Geng and tells me that her name and words are salty." The general idea of these two records is as follows: 1. The original surname of Li Bai's family was Li, which was not used in the western regions, and was restored to use after entering Shu. Secondly, the so-called "evening of ginger, dream of Chang Geng" and "My first wife dreamed of Chang Geng and announced good omen" mean that on the night when Li Bai was born, his mother dreamed of Chang Geng in her arms. Changgengxing is the morning star, and the ancients also called Taibai Venus. Li Bai's nickname Chang Geng, the word Taibai, was named after it. "White" belongs to the west in the five elements, and the west star is a long gengxing who dreams of her mother's arms. This star is extremely bright, so it is called Taibai. Li Bai's name reveals his nostalgia for his hometown.

(this is recorded in the book and should be more accurate; There is a short story below, but whether it is true or not remains to be explored)

It is said that Li Bai robbed a Book of Songs when he was one year old. His father was very happy and thought that his son might become a famous poet when he grew up, so he wanted to give Li Bai a good name so as not to be laughed at by future generations for his lack of learning. Because he is very careful in naming his son, the more careful he is, the more he can't think of it. My son is seven years old, and I haven't decided on a suitable name yet. That spring, Li Bai's father said to his wife and children, "I want to write a quatrain of spring. There are only two sentences. If you add one sentence, you can make do." One sentence is' spring breeze warms a hundred flowers', and the other is' spring is here'. "Mother thought for a long time and said," An almond fell on fire.

When Li Bai and other mothers saw it, they didn't think about it. They pointed to the plum trees in full bloom in the courtyard and blurted out: "Plum flowers are in full bloom." Hearing this, the father applauded. Sure enough, his son has a gift for poetry. The more I read, the more I like it. As I was reading, it suddenly occurred to me that the first word in this poem was just my surname. This last white word is really well used, saying that a plum blossom is as holy as snow. So he named his son Li Bai.
