Klassische Poesie

Dieser Name trägt Echos der klassischen chinesischen Poesie in sich:

「长风破浪会有时，直挂云帆济沧海」

A time will come to ride the wind and cleave the waves; I'll hoist my cloud-like sail and cross the boundless sea

— Li Bai, 'Hard Roads in Shu'

Though the poem lacks the character '龙' (dragon), the imagery parallels a dragon soaring through clouds and seas

Someday I will ride the wind and break through the waves, hoisting my sail to cross the vast ocean — soaring ambition.

「龙游浅水遭虾戏，虎落平阳被犬欺」

A dragon wading in shallow water gets teased by shrimp; a tiger on the plains gets bullied by dogs

— Folk Proverb

Even a dragon can be tormented by shrimp in shallow waters — a metaphor for a hero in adversity, which only highlights the dragon's extraordinary nature.

「水不在深，有龙则灵」

The water need not be deep; with a dragon, it becomes enchanted

— Liu Yuxi, 'Inscription on a Humble Dwelling'

It matters not how deep the water is — a dragon gives it spirit. So too may a humble dwelling be fragrant when a person of virtue resides there.

龙

dragon/ lóng

Orakelknochen-Schrift (甲骨文)~1600 BCE

In oracle bone script,「龙」(dragon) is a quintessential pictograph — a massive head, long body, and curled tail, resembling a sinuous mythical beast with horns and jaws.

Bronze-Schrift (金文)~1046 BCE

In bronze script,「龙」became more elaborate and refined, with added crest ornaments and scale patterns that echo the dragon motifs on bronze vessels — a symbol of power and auspiciousness.

Siegel-Schrift (小篆)~221 BCE

In seal script, the left side of「龙」shows the dragon's head and body, while the right side depicts its sweeping tail. Xu Shen's 'Shuowen' explains: 'The dragon is the chief of scaly creatures. It can be dark or bright, thin or enormous, short or long. At the spring equinox it ascends to heaven; at the autumn equinox it dives into the deep.'

Entwicklungszusammenfassung

From the simple pictograph of oracle bone script, to the ornate beauty of bronze script, to the stylized transformation of seal script,「龙」has always maintained the majestic posture of a divine beast. The dragon is the totem of the Chinese nation — using「龙」in a name expresses the hope that one's child will achieve greatness.
