🏅 名 (name) + 誉 (praise) = honor: the praise your name earns
名 means name or fame, and 誉 means praise or renown. 名誉 is the praise your name earns. 有名 (famous) uses the same 名.
名 — evening 夕 + mouth 口
A compound ideograph: in the dark of evening (夕), one cannot recognize others by sight, so the mouth (口) calls out a name to identify oneself. The original sense of 'name' broadened to include reputation, fame, and a measure word for people.
