Socio-Cultural and Socio-Linguistic Functions of Nursery Names in Rural China
In: South East Coastal Conference on Languages & Literatures (SECCLL) (2017)
Abstract: This presentation reports a case study that examines an ancient child-naming tradition in a rural community in northwest China where the nursery names of children have profound socio-cultural significance, and the naming practice has five main socio-linguistic sub-functions: (1) imposing the hopes of their parents; (2) reflecting a religious healing ceremonial or the villagers’ negotiations with gods or demons whom they believe to wield controls over the social and physical lives of the people in the village; (3) marking an event that is meaningful to the family or the village; (4) showing sibling relations that is deemed important in agrarian culture and (5) names for girls that reflect gender inequality. While the tradition is a valuable key to Chinese rural culture, it is facing challenges from modernity and it is already displaying a trend of declining and therefore the study of it is both necessary and significant.
