HelpRe: Picking a Chinese name
in reply to a message by Fiammetta
I like Fu Lan "happiness orchid" best. But IIWY, I'd ask a Chinese speaker, if I could get one who'd be honest with me.
I think I would not want to pick something too unique ... I'd want to use a name that had some precedent as a girl's name, and didn't seem made up and foreign to my Chinese acquaintances (I'd worry that it might be comical without me realizing it). That'd be more important to me than approximating the sound of my real name.
