This paper explores the issue of gender discrimination in Chinese female names, and conducts a comprehensive analysis from historical evolution and contemporary manifestation. The research background is based on the cultural importance of Chinese names, which reflect family history, social values, and gender roles. The research topic focuses on gender norms and discrimination in female names, and how these factors are perceived and accepted in modern society. Through the analysis of historical and cultural perspectives, this paper adopts the research methods of literature review and theoretical analysis to fill the current research gap. The results show that despite the increasing trend of gender neutrality, gender discrimination is still deeply rooted in some aspects. Also, although modern female names have begun to diversify and reflect richer social values, traditional concepts and cultural traditions still have a profound impact on female naming practices. The conclusions of the study emphasize how gender discrimination is reflected and transmitted in cultural inheritance, and how this phenomenon is challenged and changed in contemporary society. This paper not only provides a new perspective for understanding the status of Chinese women in society and culture, but also contributes new empirical data and theoretical analysis to the field of gender studies. By revealing gender bias in names, this paper highlights the importance of continued attention to gender equality and provides support for building a more equal and inclusive society.
