Your dharma name is based on your lineage aspiration name
the renounced community have their record of lineage name
But in Pureland Buddhism ,all who taken 3fold refuge are given Miaoyin as dharma name
as in the Larger Amitabha Sutra , Miaoyin is the name of practitioner in the Western Paradise and one of the name of a Perfected One
