  • Rant: Don't Butcher Chinese Names Please

yaoyueyi
Thanks!
So for the grandpa it would be Fang Chonglin? That sounds good to me =)
I ended up naming the son of heaven character Tai Long. Hopefully I didn't butcher it too badly >.> lol

    yaoyueyi I need a name for three people ( I need short and easy to pronounce names like nei li, qin li, mo heng )
    Character 1: male
    Characteristics: short tempered, hot blooded, loud mouthed,
    Name type: something related to blood, or demons, along those lines
    Character 2: female
    Characteristics: overbearing, violent, dominant, assertive
    Name type: something related to rock, Stone, mountain or oxen
    Character 3: female
    Characteristic: calm,gentle,sweet,kind
    Name type: something related to flowers with thorns

      Funny how I just this post and literally just read a novel where the MC name is Ting Wo I couldn’t help but think of it as 听我 which was quite weird 😅

        Thank you for this post. May you check on mine too?

        Ye Ai Ning.

        Surname is Ye. If I remember correct it mean 'leaf' but can it just be a surname? The name is Ai Ning which mean love and person of peace. Now I don't know if I could just mix this two.

        Jiang Liu

        Jiang is the surname which mean 'river'. Now I do know that the name Liu means 'willow' but I wonder if I could use 'precious stone' which is written in a different character as the translation instead. I search around but I saw them using that character on places or things.

          Xiao_yue yes, ye is the surname. I'm personally not a fan of ai ning but it's not too bad.
          jiang liu makes me think of a flowing river so it's kind of weird but okay

            Can you check these names please?
            Su Song
            Su Ouyang
            Tang Li
            Tang Huan

              Gloomy4_669 su song sounds kinda stupid
              ouyang is generally a surname so you're having two surnames in a row
              tang li is okay
              tang huan is not as good as tang li but decent

                In Brazil, strange names appear, such as Isadora pinto de Jesus, which can be understood Isa likes Jesus' penis, so when I see a weird name in Chinese I do not think it strange
                Kkkk
                It has name that is literally the date of birth
                Man with female name
                Name that only has last name
                Kkkkk
