    Naming laws in the People's Republic of China

    Naming laws in the People's Republic of China (excluding Hong Kong and Macau, as well as the Republic of China situated on the islands of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu) are based on technical capability rather than the appropriateness of words (as opposed to naming laws in Japan, which restrict the Kanji which can be used based on appropriate taste, as well as readability by all people). Although it is advised for parents to name their children so that others are able to easily read their names, there are no restrictions on the complexity of Chinese characters used, provided that there are no technical issues in doing so (see below). The use of Simplified characters is advised over Traditional Chinese characters; however, this is not strictly enforced.

    Details

    "General Principles of Civil Law" Article 99 guarantees citizens the right to a name and the choice of naming therein. The right of self-naming permits the surname, although naturally obtained from the paternal side, to be taken from either parent if desired (such as in the case of a dispute between parents) under Article 22 of the "Marriage Law". Thus, the government does not interfere with the will of the person or their parents in the selection of a surname, provided that it is taken from one parent. Citizens also have the right to select their given names and aliases, in which the government has no right to interfere.

    Ball and Chain

    by: Anouk

    I know the drill
    You got your ball and chain
    It holds you down, the circle round
    This story stays the same
    It won't be long
    And then your heart is frozen
    The time has come to break away
    You've got it all
    What makes you hesitate?
    Don't just wait for things
    To blow up in your pretty face
    Lift the weight
    Try not to let it slip away
    And you may find yourself again
    I feel people just don't know you like I do
    Why you're making it so hard to see
    When there's something wrong
    It goes on and on
    I know the drill
    You've got your ball and chain
    I found out the second round
    That some things never change
    Open my eyes
    And let the days come over me
    And maybe it will go away
    I feel people just don't know you like I do
    Why you're making it so hard to see
    When there's something wrong
    It goes on and on
    You'll see not everybody's here
    To break your heart
    So there is a price to pay
    To be someone you're not
    I know the drill
    You've got your ball and chain
    I found out the second round
    That some things never change
    Open my eyes
    And let the days come over me
