Direction, order and geographical location are the most basic logic of street naming at any time. For example, almost every small city has Cross Street, South Street and North Road in Yantai, Zhongshan No.1 Road, Zhongshan No.2 Road and Zhongshan No.8 Road in Guangzhou, Yijing Road, Erjing Road, Sanjing Road, Siwei Road, Sanwei Road, Jingyi Road, Jingyi Road, Jingyi Road, Jinan Road, Jingsan Road, Wei Yi Road, Weier Road and Weisi Road. This kind of street naming is the easiest to identify the direction of the street, but it is also the easiest to drown the personality of the street. Numbers can't speak, and the concept of southeast and northwest can't tell the history of the city. Naturally, they are the enemies of street culture.

The second choice for street naming is other city names. The street naming method in Taipei is transplanted to Shanghai, just like a map of China: except for a few main roads named after political ideology and traditional moral dogma, the secondary streets are renamed from north to south and from east to west according to the orientation of China map. There are Qinghai Road, Dali Street, Kangding Road, Guilin Road and Kunming Street in the southwest ... Dihua Street, Cullen Street, Hami Street, Jiuquan Street and Tacheng Street in the northwest ... Xiamen Street, Fuzhou Street, Wenzhou Street, Chaozhou Street and Jinmen Street in the southeast ... Liaoning Street, Hejiang Street, Songjiang Road and Xing 'an Street in the northeast ... This naming method is not applicable.
