磊（lei）
Name meaning
磊 (lei) means stones piled openly and, by extension, an open, upright bearing. In a given name it should suggest moral largeness and a clear conscience, not a rough or heavy temperament.
Practical naming use
Use 磊 (lei) when the name should feel frank, upright and solid. It suits public service, law, engineering, leadership, sports or any identity where strength should be clean and honest.
Pairing guide
Pair 磊 (lei) with brightness, learning or calm: 磊明 (Leiming), 磊文 (Leiwen), 磊安 (Leian) or 磊然 (Leiran). Avoid another hard stone or force word if the name becomes too blocky.
磊明 (Leiming): Lei contributes piled stones, open and upright; Ming adds brightness, clarity.
