A resounding surname is more prestigious to say out. Of course, this is not absolute. There are many war orphans in the war years, many of whom have no surnames or even no names. If Kabuto Yakushi had not been taken in by Nono Yakushi, he would not have his current name. Orochimaru and Jiraiya, two of the three ninjas, have never heard of anyone talking about their surnames. There is also Hanzo of the Salamander. He has been called Hanzo since he was a child, but he has a salamander poison sac implanted in his body, and he uses a salamander as a summoning beast, so he is given the title of salamander. Although it is said to be famous, it is not necessarily that good.
On the contrary, names like Yuhi Kurenai, Uzuki Yugao, and Gekkou Hayate are very pretty. Others like Hatake, Yamashiro, and Mitarai are quite ordinary. As for Sarutobi, Inuzuka, Aburame, etc., sorry, I really don't know what they mean. Apart from the fact that they sound catchy, I don't think Mizuki is that good.
"What are you thinking about?" Seeing Shuimu's expression constantly changing, as if he was thinking about something important, Xiaochun couldn't help but ask.
"It's so hard to think of a name!" Shuimu replied with a sigh.
"Are you still worrying about this?" Xiao Chun didn't think it was that important. "We've been married for so long, and I haven't seen you worry about your last name. Why are you so impatient now? Or do you think the name Chie Tsubaki doesn't sound good, and want to change it?"
"How could that be? It sounds quite nice!" Shuimu quickly explained.
According to the customary practice of the ninja world, unless the man is a son-in-law with no status or position, the woman will change her surname to her husband's after marriage, and abandon her previous surname to show that they are a family. In the ninja world where strength is respected, the advantage of men is unexpectedly large, and it is not surprising that they dominate the daily rules and order. Of course, there are exceptions. Uzumaki Naruto did not take the surname Namikaze like his father, the Fourth Hokage, because of some taboos.
Mizuki didn't really care about such customs. As a time traveler, Mizuki couldn't empathize with the pride of the Hyuga and Uchiha families in their family names. Even the name Mizuki, if it didn't sound good, he would have wanted to change it. As for the surname, it didn't really matter. As the first generation ancestor, he could have whatever surname he wanted. No one else could control it anyway.
Xiao Chun did not dwell on Shui Mu's answer, but asked, "What nice name have you come up with? This is for both of us, and there is a child to inherit. If it is not good, I will not agree!"
"Yes, yes!" Shuimu responded readily.
Recently, Xiaochun's temper seems to have improved a bit. She is no longer as dependent as before and listens to Shuimu in everything.
"I can't think of anything good right now."
Although my name is written as "Shui Mu", it can also be written as Shui Shu, Rui Shu, Rui Mu, etc. based on the pronunciation. The common meanings are similar, referring to lush small trees.
The word "Tsubaki" has a very different meaning from Mizuki's previous life. In the ninja world, Tsubaki means camellia, which happens to match the "lush little tree". The two have been childhood sweethearts and grew up together. The similarity in the meaning of their names is also an important reason for their good relationship.
Later, Xiaochun got the surname Chie, but Shuimu refused the surname given by the elders. The ninja who walked the world under the name of Shuimu was a guy who was unwilling to be mediocre since he was a child. He was determined to create a clan that stood tall in the ninja world with the reputation of the future. Unfortunately, he failed because of his great ambitions. In this life, he was possessed and merged by a time traveler before his ambitions were fulfilled.
"It seems that I remembered some extraordinary "past events"! "
Shuimu shook his head to drive away the thoughts that surged into his mind, and then asked tentatively: "What do you think?"
Xiao Chun seemed a little proud and said, "Isn't there a ready-made surname?"
"Huh?" Shuimu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "You mean, the child should have your last name?"
"Why, Chie is not okay?"
"It's not impossible!" Shuimu shook his head and said, "It just feels too casual, and Chie doesn't read it with enough momentum!"
Shuimu's words seemed to have touched Xiaochun's nerves, and she said angrily, "I knew you looked down on the surname given by the old dean..."
"Huh?" So you were waiting here? Shuimu was suddenly at a loss for words, "It's been so many years, and you're still angry about this?"
"No." Xiaochun turned her head away and said.
Well, he was obviously angry, it’s all Mizuki’s fault!
The story goes back to when the two of them stayed together in a welfare institution for war orphans. All the children had their names chosen when they were young, but their surnames were assigned by the dean or relevant guardians when they entered the ninja school every year. It was a peaceful routine, but unexpectedly, Mizuki caused some trouble. Since Mizuki took the lead in not wanting the surname assigned by the dean, many people followed suit, which made the old dean, who was not young at the time, very angry. Because of this, Xiaochun ignored Mizuki for a long time.
"You can't blame me for this. Names like Kimura, Yamada, and Haruhara are too ugly."
"After all this talk, you still think my Chie is not nice, right? Then tell me a nice one?"
Now is the time to test Shuimu's quick wit.
"It's not that I dislike it, I just want to change to a better one."
Mizuki thought for a moment and continued.
"The child of our two must be decided by both of us. You are the camellia, and I am the little tree. From now on, the child's surname will be 'Lin'!"
"Two trees make a forest?" Xiao Chun pouted awkwardly and said unyieldingly, "If the child wants to take my last name in the future, you can't stop him!"
"No problem." Shuimu patted his chest and assured, "It's settled!"
"Okay then."
Finally satisfied, Xiaochun smiled.
"What was the child's name?"
"I need to think about it more." Naming is really a headache. "What do you think of 'Xing'?"
"No, nothing special!"
"Then 'Starling' should be good, right?"
"ordinary."
"Is Daisy satisfied now?"
"It's too soft, my classmates will laugh at me!" Xiaochun said unhappily, "Why do you always like to find names on plants?"
"Eh? Isn't this good?"
Isn’t it normal for traditions to be passed down from generation to generation?
"Since you don't like either, why not change it to 'Miyuki' or 'Izumi'. Which one do you think is better?"
If you give one answer, there are only choices of yes and no. If you give one more option, the judgment question becomes a multiple-choice question, and the chances of passing the question increase.
As expected, Xiaochun thought for a moment and said, "Let's call her Miyuki. It's a decent name and will save us a lot of trouble in the future."
