qostoq would advise against shen zhi... makes me think of 甚至 which means even. shen huang also doesn't seem like a female name. if your last name is '沈', all three of those names sound a bit ridiculous in chinese. shen lan is the best out of the three, but again, I'm not a big fan.
meng heng is okay, but meng long is not. reminds me of 朦胧 which means hidden... and although it may not sound bad, it's pretty pathetic of a name.
hope this helps.
Rant: Don't Butcher Chinese Names Please
I dislike my Chinese name. I wish my parents did not name after a season bird.
@yaoyueyi
Do you know any sites with good information on them that would help me understand this topic? As Zhen Xin mentioned earlier, I use the same site usually but reading this makes me feel like my names could have been made better.
WorstNameEver nope, I don't.
all the sites I know are in Chinese bc the English ones usually suck.
yaoyueyi
Argh... dang. Alright, then I guess I have to mention names said so far.
Fan Zhi - MC
Fan Heng - Never been sure if this one was good, always felt off to me
Fan Hui
Fan Cheng
WorstNameEver sounds decent.
yaoyueyi
ok cool, I wasn't entirely sure how they sounded. I tried looking at a lot of Eastern Fantasy translations and names used and such to try get a good idea of what works and what doesn't

Two Chinese names for girls, fitting for the eastern fantasy genre. Their last name must sound strong. One of the girls' name preferably should be related to moon. She is fifteen. She has white hair and silver eyes. Most of the time she is silent, but a predator on the inside.
The other one is a mature woman with a sharp face. They are from the same sect, so their last names will be the same. This one isn't that important for me but the other girl is.
Would this be enough for you to give me a suggestion? :)
- Edited
That awkward moment when I'm Chinese and I feel like I thoroughly screwed up my names lolol XDD
Would you mind giving feedback to these names below, if you're not too busy? c:
Bai Lifei (f)
Huang Peizhi (m)
Huang Wu Ting (m)
Xue Guren (m)
Ling Jiayi (f)
Thank you so much in advance :heart:
luminouslyy guren sounds like old acquaintance
otherwise they're fine, though I'm not a fan of Wang Jian just because he sounds so 贱 lmao
yaoyueyi Amitabha, I know a penniless monk that ran into someone named just that...
yaoyueyi Are you serious? Like, the dudes name actually translates to beard? That’s funny as hell!
