In the former, people have a tendency to keep their family name generation after generation.; however, in many Western cultures, surnames often change and there tends to be a wider range of them. Moreover, Chinese people show respect for their elders and ancestors by256their given names, whereas people in Western societies do exactly the opposite.Another difference concerns the order of family and given names. For the Chinese, family names 257 a person’s family membership are followed by given names, which come first in the Western tradition. Meanwhile, in many258 countries, there is still another custom. Children will take their surnames from both their parents instead of taking them only from the father’s side.Apart from these different naming customs and traditions, there are some peculiar naming rules in certain cultures. Take the Yami people of Taiwan for example. In this culture, the son does not take the name of the father; 259 , the father changes his name upon the birth of his first son. For example, a father 40 his son Lamboan would also change his own name to Shaman Lamboan, 260 “Father of Lamboan.” Furthermore, the boy’s grandfather’s name would be changed to Shabin Lamboan, which stands for “Grandfather of Lamboan.” There are many other interesting naming systems around the world, and each one seems unique.
