Not a name but for the silver butterflies, I accidentally found out their true meanings when I was writing a poem for tgcf. Apparently, silver represents (not sure if its the same in English but I was searching for Chinese poetry reps) a few things and one of them is 永恒 or "forever". Butterflies on the other hand only have one partner for their entire life thus they are the representation of loyalty. IN CONCLUSION, Hua Cheng is forever loyal to his husband and MXTX is a damn genius

So awesome to collaborate with you! This was so much fun and I learned a ton! :)

XL is called Xielian because his mother’s sur name is “闵（min)”, which pronounces the same as “悯 min”, it literally means sympathy.

wow this is thoroughly intriguing because it's very deep to know that a name can be used to predict a character's physical features, personality or past, present or future, i truly love the idea that names can have way more importance than usual for every single character, it's very beautiful

The rain master's spiritual device is a verdant *bamboo hat*, that's amazing.

2:14 @Kictor we had the EXACT same expression learning Shi Wu Du's name 😮🤣 Thank you Ty! love learning more about all of these things that get lost in the translation!

6:23 OMG! I got goosebumps after hearing about Gu Zi! so Qi Rong had a part of it in his name!

i was hoping for feng xin and mu qing’s names to be covered also bc they’re my two favorite characters (and otp lol) besides hualian, haha. love your content, can’t wait to watch more of it in the future!

I speak mandarin, I thought of none of that when I read the book TT 😂😂😂😂😂😂

I finally found someone who can explain the messaging behind HOB. Because I really appreciate having an understanding of this story.

Wow this explains so much, i never knew you could dig this deep into the meaning of Chinese names? My fiance gave me a Chinese name for convenience around his family and it's 余生 and I'm so moved with the meaning, makes me wish we could have a better naming culture in the West. I want to hurry up and learn Mandarin so I can spot all the little details like that in the future! I would love that if you made more videos like this!! 🤍

Not me in real life literally taking notes on all these characters and the meanings because why not and I want to feed my obsession.

No wonder there was a time stamp, y'all syn'ed the upload time!!! Love the analysis and love the video ❤️❤️❤️

Okay, SOMEONE needs to interview mxtx sometime

Enjoyed this video so much!! I already knew a few of the meanings but hearing how MXTX really put thought into every single character when naming them just warms my heart. It shows just how dedicated she is to her story and how each of these characters hold a special place in her heart as well. I think the one I really liked was Qi Rong's one where the character "Gu" was being protected by the little roof on top, foreshadowing how he protects Guzi in the end. Just Perfect! Can't wait to hear more meanings behind the names!

WOW!!! This is so cool!! Qi Rong has such a deep meaning behind his name, I love these videos! Thanks for posting, subscribed and liked! :)))) Tysm!

Thank you for this!! It's always so fun learning about this. It really shows how much care is given into this novel 😭😭

I almost started crying when she said the “my dream is only you” line because the book is too fresh in my mind and I cried at the ending🥲

Qi rong name meaning blew my mind. The rest I kind of anticipated but this one 🤯🤯🤯

I hope to see ty and Kictor going on live together one day. Anybody with me on this??🙌?

Some of these meanings I haven't heard before, thank you so much! This will make my nth reread so much better

i finished tgcf last night and only a minute in the “if your dream is to save the common people, then my dream, is only you.” line was mentioned and that is my weakness i immediately started crying

Wow that was what I loved about the writer. Ingenious writing and even when you were describing them it made me cry for some reason. It reminded me that our names could be tied up to our fate or to our personality. I love Xie Lian and Wind Master even more!

I can't believe how many beautiful details are there

Amazing video Ty and Kictor. I will definitely re-visit this video again when HOB live-action is aired sometime in 2022 or 2023.

watching this before watching the donghua/reading the book is the best way to slowly relate when you start consuming it

This is so cool, every single detail about this story is magical I wanna cry 😭❤️ Thank you for this amazing video 💕

i love ur vids man, learning all of this is just so mind blowing as an english speaker

qi rong's name really shocked me LMFAO 😭 he's my favourite character 😵😵

I hurriedly click on this video by the title, its so amazing the author so beyond genius and yet you guys explain it magically, such beautiful thing to learn the culture from the one of our favourite master piece. And the previous video about Hua Cheng also hit me in the deep how this love so blind and sincere.

When u mentioned the wind master name especially the qing part I had an understanding of MxTx other book svsss. One of the main characters from svsss has qing in his name, so I was like “no wonder he wears blue or green in the anime/novel”.

Thank you!

Thank you for these videos 🙏❤️🙏

I didn’t know this before! Thank you for the information

I had known about most of these characters but Wind Master's was really interesting and his character is admirable because even though he sustained so many injuries and had his world turned upside down, he still kept hope.

Wow that’s very very enlightening , thank you so much

MXTX is clever ajdjdjfn

Thanks for the video...... There were to many spoilers.... 🤯🤯😱😱😭😭 But I'm not angry I'm happy because I learnt a lot about their names and the story......I love it!!! 😍😍💖💖💖

Wow wow... Such a beautiful language... Makes me want to learn Chinese 😍😍 and thank you so much for your explanation 🌺

This is so interesting and after reading the novel, this still amazes me. Wow

Loved this video SO MUCH!! Thank you for sharing these name meanings and interpretations with us! :))

Ahhhhhhhhhhh such a great analysis >v< but you guys might want to put a spoiler warning, there are a few huge spoilers,,,

刚用VPN来KZfaq就看到了您的精彩视频，您的解说做得很好。说实话我自己看的时候也没注意到这么多细节，很感谢你的解说。我希望等我去国外上大学的时候也可以找到喜欢TGCF的人一起交流。祝你的视频越做越好❤

Your videos really make me appreciate these works so much more,, so much genius that I would have missed otherwise

I came across lots of new stuff ...Thanks Ty brother ♥️ This was a very nice video💜

I love this , it was so interesting to learn about the meaning behind there name. Now we need a video about mdzs and svsss character name 🙏🤲🙂👍

i love shi qingxuan so much 😭

I’m so happy you guys made a video together!

i was just watching kictor and i was binging some of your videos too !! i’m glad this video came out because i was wondering abt the characters’ names and i’m happy to see 2 amazing youtubers in one video ! 😸

Wow!! 😍😍 Thanku so much,, omg!!! I'm really just,, just😭🤧freaking surprised... And your explanation is just amazing. 😍😍 Amazing, and I'm just really happy for this info. Actually I always saves to read novel after watching drama or manhua , because by that I can imagine more beautifully, but the drama is still hanghing and anime is not for full story, I already wanted that and about manhua it is still same, so , I was planing to keep it to read after drama but now after this , I simply can't wait... 😭😭🤧 Okayy, So now I have to read it first.😌😞🖤Opps! I almost forgot to tell, I really had goosebumps.😱

watching these videos make me so happy!! specially the energy

Subbed done. You've amazing content. I now have somewhere to go to for my donghua, manhua, danmei, cdrama questions.

Wow i never expected for qi rong to have that depth in his name

This Video is amazing! Thank you for making us know all these hidden meanings!

@Kictor I have known MDZS, Heaven's official blessings, etc have a huge international fan base. And now I finally get to see a real life non Chinese fan! I've always been so curious... @ Kictor: So... you don't think it's weird?! Flying people, men with long hair. I want to know! What was your first impression after watching MDZS ?!?

Omg this video is amazing!!!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!!

Omggg this was so interesting and cool! Bless u for having this chanel. Immediately suscribed

I'm shook

Hey Ty, what do you make of the old ancient meaning of 青 as black. Not applicable or somehow related to HX?

戚容的‘容’字这个解释真的绝了！原来和谷子有关！我都没想到！厉害厉害！😍

So here's something I never realised yeah...I read the novel 4 times and I always thought 国师 was just called 国师...So he had a name????

Me drinking up all of these like a thirsty sponge. I need more.

Qi rong's one omg- 🥺-

I am pleasantly surprised! 🤩

7:03 as for the question on how she comes up with such names is not rare. As an aspiring writer, usually when you start developing story after some scenario or scene played in you mind, you start with character development first. Before even start putting the story together, you’d normally have a clear idea of different characters and how they would be related or played out and some background (in different depth depending on how significant that character is in the story) . Also, there is no more fun than using hints and foreshadowing in stories (at least for me) lol.

2:11 OH! his name was telling his ending so well, but we had no idea! O_O

my first encounter with MXTX's character name-play was GDC's SiZhui. I had bullet comments flashing in my head going like: the heck your uncle is going to respond to this. Adopt a child and naming him...gahhh first of all this is the responsibility of a father isnt it and now as a father you named him what?! Oh god, this has ABSOLUTELY no difference from standing on a stage with a loudspeaker yelling comeback i miss you. oh lord the whole clan + the neighboring clans would know. Is THIS how Lan clan people fall in love and pda?! Arent you guys the walking textbook of decency and formality. How are they going to recover from THIS much of information..😨😨😨 yup i cracked at that moment.

I would love to see more about the characters

Another thing about the name QiRong: In chinese, 'Qi' can also mean 'sorrow' and 'Rong' 'facial expression', so to me as a native Chinese speaker, at first glance the name itself indicates that this is a tragic character (which turns out to be true)

SPOILERS . . . 4:24 omg, that the last character of their names was THE SAME was mind-blowing!! Because SQX was literally given the future that HX was SUPPOSED to have had, and whole incident was covered up as a deep mystery! This little easter egg gave me chills 💯 And the rest of the video too, wow. Brilliant analysis for all their names, loved HC and SL analysis on Kictor too!!

That "Spirit of the greater good" got me flashbacks.. 😅

Love. This. Vid.

i'm wondering since all characters have a meaning in Chinese, how do you know in a novel something is a name and not a description/situation etc? without having an actual introduction like "Hi, my name is..."

Pls make a part 2 plss >__

I am a fan but I'm not to her level,very interesting 👍👍👍👍

love this! What I don't understand is why is Xie Lian still called the crown prince in heaven.

玄as a color，it means black

my personal favourite is "cuo cuo"

Chinese boy speaking in English ascent so cute 😍 you're so sweet ☺️😁

Hello i have a question. Why is xie lian sometimes referred to as dianxia ? I read the book but i don't remember him being called dianxia in the novel. Did i just miss that?

watching these made me realize how trash i am at my native language

花城，为花冠武神花开满城。

Qirong and Guzi 😭

... me being chinese and not catching most of these hints. aiyo im a disappointment lmao

How "Black water comes (dressed as HC)" ??? Was it said anywhere in the book that was the case? 0o

SPOILER ALERTS FOR THOSE WHO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT TGCF. THESE NAMES CONTAIN SPOILERS.

I thought blue in Chinese is 蓝 (lán)?

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
