Chapter 1 Introduction
Tim Bennet claimed that “one’s name is destined, for most people, to be little more than a label” (2017:139). Although most personal names indicate their bearers’ sex, nationality or family background, the main purpose of the emergence of personal names is to facilitate the communication in human society. However, since most literary works are to use limited words to express immeasurable ideas, every character is designed elaborately. Therefore, as an important part of characters, personal names are definitely much more than a label in literary works.
