名副其实

النطق: míng fù qí shí المعنى الحرفي: Name matches reality

الأصل والاستخدام

This idiom originates from the Han Dynasty text 'Hou Han Shu' (后汉书), where it described officials whose abilities matched their titles. The phrase combines 'name' (名) with 'matching' (副) its 'reality' (实). In ancient China, there was great emphasis on the correspondence between titles and actual merit, as misaligned names and realities were seen as a source of social disorder. Confucius himself emphasized 'rectification of names' (正名). Modern usage applies to anything that lives up to its reputation, from products to people to places.
