[Opinions] Re: Need help picking out a Chinese name for character
in reply to a message by booksen
Can you provide more info about the character? I speak Mandarin so perhaps I could help.

Thank you for the offer. I'm still developing him but what I have for him so far is a fairly light hearted and good natured person and has a fascination with medicine and the human body alongside his casual enjoyments. In terms of power and abilities he's average but persistent.

Thanks for the personality description. Since there're tens of thousands of Chinese words (while many of them share the same pronunciation) that can be used as names, I guess we can start from the other way around... Which English name would you give to this character?
I think that's where I feel unsure, the sheer amount of options and finding a combination that makes sense and is okay.
I haven't thought of it this way but looking at more English sounding names I do like Hale or Halen, not for the meaning of them but how they sound.

Yes, asking someone who speaks Mandarin would be the best course of action! Good luck!
