- Burmese name
Refimprove date December 2011 Burmese names lack the serial quality of most modern names. The Bamar Burmese people have no customary patronymic or matronymic system and thus there is no surname at all. In Burmese culture, people can change their name at will, often with no government oversight, to reflect a change in the course of their lives. Also, many Burmese names use an honorific , given at some point in life, as an integral part of the name. However, in modern Burma many of these traditions are changing. ref http www.theatlantic.com doc 195802 burma names Burmese Names A Guide. Mi Mi Khaing . The Atlantic . February 1958 ref Traditional and Western style names Burmese names were originally one syllable, as in the cases of U Nu and U Thant U being an honorific . In the mid 20th century, many Burmese started using two syllables, albeit without any formal structure. In the late 1890s, British scholars observed that the Arakanese people Arakanese commonly adopted three syllable names, whereas the Bamar Bamar were still using one or two at most. ref cite journal last Houghton first Bernard date July 1897 journal Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland publisher Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland pages 454 url http www.jstor.org stable 25207880 ref As they become more familiar with Western culture, Burmese people are gradually increasing the number of syllables in their children s names, by use of various structures. Today, names with up to four syllables are common for males and up to five for females. For example, Aung San s parents were named Pha my and Suu my , both of which are single syllable names. His birth name was Htain Lin my , but he changed his name to Aung San my later in life. His child is named Aung San Suu Kyi my . The first part of her name, Aung San , is from her father s name at the time of her birth. Suu comes from her grandmother. Kyi comes from her mother, Khin Kyi my ... more details
