Onomastics has been an important field of sociolinguistics in relation to language management in any culture. In Sinospheric polities, the use and transliteration of person names in Chinese are characterized by distinctive features. From the perspective of language planning, this paper examines the planning and practice of anthroponymy in several Sinospherie polities. By investigating the anthroponomastic issues and proposing appropriate solutions related to Chinese characters in different soeio-politieal contexts, this paper attempts to intensify the understanding of the complexity of onomastie planning, and shed light on standardizing the use of Chinese characters for person naming system in theory and practice.
