In a move that’s drawn both amusement and a touch of head-scratching from the online community, an individual formerly known as “Zhuque Xuanwu Chiling” — a moniker that translates roughly to “Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise Command”— has officially adopted a new, decidedly more conventional name: Zhou Jingming. The change, announced on the individual’s social media, marks a significant shift in personal branding, and serves as a reminder of the very human desire to fit in.
Explaining the rationale behind the revised alias, Zhou Jingming shared that “Zhou” honors his mother’s surname. “Jingming,” he elaborated, is drawn from the idiom “chun he jingming” (春和景明), which evokes the imagery of a warm, clear spring day. The term is also borrowed from Fan Zhongyan’s “Yueyang Tower Record,” a celebrated piece of classical Chinese literature, where it suggests a sense of tranquility and clarity. The chosen name reflects a longing for a peaceful and uncomplicated life, far removed from the perceived eccentricities attached to his previous identity.
He acknowledged that his past penchant for unusual and lengthy names, including the original “Zhuque Xuanwu Chiling,” had caused practical difficulties in both his personal and professional spheres. He also expressed regret for the inconvenience and potential disruption his frequent name changes caused to local authorities and the wider online community.
“Changing my name to Zhou Jingming is my hope to lead a normal life going forward. Thank you, everyone,” he stated.
