From ancient times to the present, the Nguyen surname has been dominant among others like Ta, Dinh, Mac, Vo, etc. According to my knowledge, the origin of the Nguyen surname (in Han characters: 阮) is shared by 40% of Vietnamese people. Outside Vietnam, this surname is also common in places with Vietnamese immigrants such as Australia (ranking 7th), France (ranking 54th), the United States (ranking 57th), Norway (ranking 73rd), and the Czech Republic (ranking 1st). In Vietnamese history, there are many heroic female figures bearing this surname. For example:

Naming Guide for Girls with the Nguyen Surname
Traditionally, in our country, girls were often given middle names, signifying the hope that they would become virtuous, gentle, and graceful women, while boys were given middle names like 'Van' with the hope that they would grow up to be intelligent and talented individuals. The Nguyen family also followed this naming convention for their daughters. Additionally, our ancestors believed that the uglier the name, the easier the child would be to raise, which has perpetuated a conservative way of life associated with children throughout their lives.
But in our modern era, human thinking has progressed significantly. Parents in general, and the Nguyen family in particular, have become more open-minded in naming practices, preferring names for their daughters that bring good luck and beauty while also being compatible with Feng Shui principles, all while maintaining the inherent beauty of our ancestral traditions.
