1644, the emperor shunzhi settled in Beijing and began to establish his rule over the whole country. The emperor shunzhi received Confucian education, which started the process of the localization of the Qing emperor, and the choice of names of future generations began to change. Shunzhi has eight sons, namely, Niu Niu, Fuquan, Huang (born by Dong E Fei, untitled after his death), Changning, Long He. In the sense of names, most of them are close to sinicization.
Emperor Kangxi 166 1 ascended the throne, and Kangxi reigned 6 1. He is a highly Chinese emperor. Influenced by Chinese culture, he established the following principles for naming his descendants: the first word is consistent; The radicals of the second word are the same. Kangxi * * * has 35 sons, and 24 sons are included in the family tree. The initials of these 24 sons are all "Yin", and the radical capital of the second word is "Beside Clothes", such as the familiar eldest son Yin, crown prince Yin, third son Yin, fourth son Yin, eighth son Yin and thirteenth son Huang. Although these words are not commonly used, they all have beautiful meanings in the interpretation of ancient Chinese.
1722, Yin succeeded to the throne. At the beginning of his reign, he ordered the names of all his brothers to be changed from "Yin" to "Yun" to avoid the name of the emperor. The only prince of grace, Yun Xiang, had an unusual relationship with Yongzheng, and after his death, he got permission from Yongzheng and adopted the word "Yin". Yong Zhengdi * * * has 10 children, of which only 6 are written in "Jade Died". The first word of their names is "Hong", and the second word contains the word "Japan", such as Honghui, Hongyun, Hongshi, (traditional Chinese characters), Hongzhou (descendants of modern calligraphers) and Honghong.
1735, Emperor Qianlong ascended the throne. Because he didn't pay attention to taboo, his brother's name kept the word "Hong". Emperor Qianlong had 17 sons, three of whom died untitled. The first word of Emperor Qianlong is "Yong", and the second word is "Xie Yubian" (people usually call it "Wang Zibian", which is actually wrong), such as the eldest son, the second son, the third son, the fourth son Yong, the fifth brother Yong Qi, the sixth son Yong, the seventh son Yong Cong, the eighth son Yong Xuan and the seventh son Yong Xuan.
Once, Emperor Liu Zi painted a New Year's Eve dinner for Qianlong's mother, his grandmother, the Empress Dowager. Emperor Qianlong was very happy, and wrote the words "always be kind and entertain people" on it, meaning that children and grandchildren will serve their mothers for a long time when they grow up. After that, Emperor Qianlong picked out the words "Yong, Mian, Yi and Zai" as the naming words for later generations.
1796, Emperor Qianlong abdicated, and the fifteenth son of Yan Yong ascended the throne, becoming Emperor Jiaqing. Usually, the name of the emperor is taboo in the world, and the word "Yong" is a common word, which causes inconvenience to face and avoids the renaming of brothers. Emperor Jiaqing changed his name to Yan. Emperor Jiaqing had five sons, the eldest son died untitled, and the others were Mianning (traditional), Miankai, Mianxin and Mianyu. The second word of the name has a radical "heart" factor.
Mianning became Emperor Daoguang in 1820. After he ascended the throne, he took the same approach, and his father and his name were changed to "Ning". At this time, the descendants of the imperial clan flourished, and the words "harmony, encouragement, yi and zai" determined by Emperor Qianlong were no longer enough. Therefore, Daoguang added the words "general, abundant, balanced and neat". Daoguang Emperor * * * has nine sons, the first word is Yi, and the second word is "by the noose", but the eldest son Yi Wei, the second son Yi Gang and the third son Yi Ji died early, so Daoguang Emperor changed from four sons, four sons, five sons, six sons, seven sons and eight sons to "by the word".
183 1 year, the emperor ascended the throne for Xianfeng, and successive emperors never changed their surnames from him. Emperor Xianfeng had two sons, but only one survived, and that was Zai Chun born to Cixi. Although the emperor's children were not rich, the royal family lived and multiplied, and Xianfeng added the words "Tao, Zeng and Qi". 1874, the Tongzhi emperor died of illness, and Cixi decided the world in one word and made the son of Prince Yi of Alcohol the emperor. On the side of the second word of "zai" is "three points of water". Such as Zai Feng, Zai Tao, etc.
1908 1 14 10/4, Emperor Guangxu died of acute poisoning. Before her death, Cixi arranged for Puyi, the nephew of Emperor Guangxu and the son of Zai Feng, the prince of alcohol, to become emperor. The second generation of "Pu" is single-sided, such as Puyi and (Traditional). 19 12 The Qing government abdicated and the royal family became civilians. During the Republic of China, although Puyi had abdicated, he still held a very high position in the hearts of all ages, at least as an "elder". So Puyi added twelve words, "respect, ambition, openness, Switzerland, tin, English, source, prosperity, righteousness, omen and auspiciousness".
Complement the clear characters: Yin, Hong, Yong, Mian, Yi, Zai, Pu, Yu, Heng, Qi, Dao, Zeng, Qi, Jing, Zhi, Kai, Rui, Ying, Yuan, Sheng, Zheng, Zhao, Mao and Xiang. Generally speaking, Yin characters take water as the radical; Hongzi generation takes the day as the edge; Yongzi dynasty took oblique jade as the edge; The cotton seed generation takes the vertical center as the edge; Word substitution is word deviation; Walnut is the square of the generation with characters; Pu generation is partial; The other generation took the mountain as the edge, but with the alienation of blood, the edge of one generation was not exactly the same. For example, Wang Yi of Qing Dynasty, who has been "hot" recently, neither himself nor his descendants adopted the above principles.
Finally, to sum up, compared with the Ming Dynasty, the naming of the royal family in the Qing Dynasty was rather chaotic. The early rulers were less sinicized and had more casual names. With entering the Central Plains, emperors began to accept the Central Plains culture of the Han nationality, and the selection of names had certain rules, but there was no more accurate regulation on the specific naming, especially on the side of the second word in the name.
