As the heir to a 1,500-year Chinese scholarly naming tradition, Master He distilled generations of knowledge into the Three Powers Twelve Palaces framework — the systematic method that powers every name created on ProSino.Name.
His book My Chinese Name presents this framework to a global audience — a practical, transparent guide to Chinese naming that treats the art as a craft of language, character, and cultural respect, not superstition. His core philosophy: "A name is not a talisman to change destiny, but a beam of light that illuminates life."
A graduate of Harvard University's Department of Comparative Literature, Dr. Chen spent a decade studying cross-cultural identity formation, with a focus on how names function as cultural anchors across linguistic borders.
Fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese, English, and French, Dr. Chen bridges the gap between the ancient art of Chinese naming and the modern Western expectation of clarity, personal resonance, and professional identity.
He developed the East-West Phonetic Bridge Method — the systematic approach by which ProSino names echo your original name in sound while carrying authentic Chinese literary meaning.
Master Li supports L3/L4 custom work by reading the client’s life stage, cultural setting, and stated red lines through the Prudence and Destiny Palaces. Her role is advisory: she helps ensure a name fits the person’s real context without turning naming into fortune-telling.
She reviews optional birth date and place information only as background context, alongside profession, personality, region of use, and cultural affinities. Final character selection still follows the v2.1 Twelve-Palace method: sound, form, meaning, imagery, lineage, taboos, aspiration, classics, and authentic self.
For advanced consultations, Master Li explains why each character was chosen and what still requires the client’s own recognition before the name is considered complete.
