Abstract
According to the volumes of Zuo Zhuan in sequence, this article discusses the relevance between first names and courtesy names of the six characters in the text. The following eight characters are in sequence of volumes: Gōng-zǐ (the prince of Sòng State), Dū's courtesy name is ＂Huá-fù＂; Lìng-yǐn (the prime minister of Chǔ State), Chéng Dé-chén's and Dà-fū (the senior official of Chǔ State), Guān Cóng's are both ＂Zi-yù＂; Dà-fū (the senior official of Jìn State), Xū Chén's is ＂Zi-fàn＂; Gōng-zǐ (the prince of Qín State), Zhēn's is ＂Bó Chē＂; Dà-fū (the senior official of Qí State), Chén Nì's is ＂Zi-xíng＂. The relevance between first names and courtesy names of these eight characters is literal meaning such as Chén Nì's; or it is opposite meaning, for instance, Gōng-zǐ Dū's, Xū Chén's and Chéng Dà-xīn's; moreover, it is also similar meaning like Chéng Dé-chén's, Guān Cóng's, Xì Qí's and Gōng-zǐ Zhēn's.
