When Chinese pick names for our children, we go through a completely different process.Obviously they still have to sound nice,but there are more important considerations.

According to Chinese tradition,a good name must supplement and complement a person's fortune.In chinese fortune telling,there are five natural elements govern a person's future,:gold,wood,water,fire,earth.a life will be good if there

elements are balanced.When a child is born,his birth year ,month ,day and hour will combine to give him eight characters,each representing a pariticular natural element.If all five elements present in a child's eight characters,then the child will be more likely to live a balanced and

harmonious life .But most of the time, a person's eight characters will be unbalanced.One would have abndance in one element but a deficiency in others.

This is where the proper naming of a child paramount.A good name can make up for the deficiency in elements,if one is lacking water,then having a name that contains water can solve that problem.However,picking the specific name is a job for the fortune telling experts.
