“Using the paternal surname, maternal surname, and given name, combining all three? Xu Lintianbao?”
Lin Xi considered it and felt she could accept this.
However, there were still issues with this approach.
“What about those who fought for naming rights? Can’t they just combine the names from both parents?”
“Also, when this child has children in the future, which surname will they take? They can’t just keep combining the parents’ surnames, right? Wouldn’t the surname double with each generation?”
Tang Li shook her head and explained, “They are not used together, but separately.”
“Allow the child to simultaneously use the mother’s surname and the father’s clan name. If it’s a girl, the next generation will carry on the mother’s surname. If it’s a boy, the next generation will carry on the father’s clan name.”
“The given name and courtesy name will also be given separately. The mother gives the given name, which follows the surname. The father gives the courtesy name, which follows the clan name. This way, there’s no need to fight over naming rights, as everyone gets a say.”
“If it’s a girl, she’ll normally use her mother’s surname and the given name chosen by her mother. The father’s clan name and the courtesy name chosen by her father will be used as an alias. If it’s a boy, it’s the reverse.”
Hearing Tang Li’s words, Lin Xi’s eyes lit up.
“This is indeed a method that satisfies everyone.”
“After all, even if a daughter takes her father’s surname, in the next generation, her grandson will take his father’s surname, not his mother’s. It’s better to take the mother’s surname. If the grandchild born in that generation is a girl, she can continue to take her mother’s surname.”
“This way, the mother, daughter, and granddaughter can consistently pass down the maternal lineage, while the father, son, and grandson can consistently pass down the paternal lineage. Everyone has an opportunity for lineage.”
“And by having both a given name and a courtesy name, it allows both parents to feel involved!”
Lin Xi sighed, “Captain, not only are you strong, but your mind is also incredibly sharp!”
“To think of such a method? Why didn’t anyone else think of it? Why didn’t I think of it?”
After finishing speaking, Lin Xi went out to share Tang Li’s method.
Soon, this method of using both surnames and clan names, given separately, spread.
Although many people still opposed it, it was indeed a method that could satisfy everyone.
Thus, Song Pinxuan and the others also adopted this method.
Lin Xi, as she wished, had her daughter take her surname and named her “Lin,” making her full name Lin Lin.
Her daughter’s father also gave her the alias “Xu Tianbao.”
These were all registered on the identification cards.

After all, in the previous life, the great earthquake had come too suddenly. Official supplies were massively lost, and the collapse of buildings generated a large number of corpses.
If these corpses were not used to feed the rice worms, then there would be a large number of people without food who would directly eat the dead.
Even if some people maintained their integrity and refused to eat the dead, they would starve to death due to lack of food.
After weighing the pros and cons, the authorities made this decision and severely punished those who directly ate corpses, sending them to build underground cities.
In this way, after the great earthquake, the trend of cannibalism was curbed.
However, in this life, Song Pinxuan had already alerted the high-ranking officials through his precognitive dreams.
Because of his background and his achievements after the apocalypse, the authorities placed great trust in his words. They made preparations in advance and frequently conducted earthquake evacuation drills.
It was expected that the casualties in this life would not be as severe as in the previous life, and supplies would have been transferred to safe locations beforehand.
What was worrisome, however, was that once the great earthquake disrupted production, the current reserves of supplies, consumed without replenishment, would simply not be enough.
