Meaning of Chinese name 若愚

[Scoobyqueen]

I recently came across a journalist named 李若愚. Can anyone tell me what the meaning is of the last two characters is? I am confused as to what this means when appearing in someone's name. I think I understand the individual meaning. I am fairly certain I noted it down correctly.

I think it means about the same as in 大智若愚. Take a look at this for more detailed explanation.

It is from"大智若愚". It makes the person seem wise as a name.

In Chinese there is an idiom called"大智若愚"

this is an adj uesed to describe such kind of people that they have profound taste of life so that they donot care much how to behave in daily life.

many times they may seem very stupid and slow in reaction,but as a matter of fact,they have extremely acute insight and keen observation.

I prefer "才智出众但并不处处表现在外".

大巧不功
