Editor's note:
English names can serve many purposes. They can help make it easier to make friends with foreigners as they might find Chinese names hard to remember, they can allow you to express yourself by giving yourself a name, and they can even help you seem more professional if you're looking to work in an MNC.
Whether you choose a classic, "proper" name or get more creative depends on what you want to use your name for. Generally, classic names will seem more professional while quirky names will help you stand out and get noticed.
Of course, different names will mean different things depending on the context. If you're in a punk rock band you might choose a more wacky name whereas if you want to work as a management consultant you might choose a more conservative one. In general, baby name books and websites are a great place to start to look for a name for yourself.
读者@Joanne_🙉
Joanne 主页君觉得怎么样??姓容的,谢谢??
外专回复:
This is a classic English name that means "God is gracious". It's a lovely name.
读者@Ashara
我的英文名叫Ashara,我很喜欢,但是一直不知道发音的时候重音在那?mo-害羞,请求指教,谢谢!
外专回复:
I wasn't able to find the meaning of this name, but it sounds a little exotic. I believe it is pronounced ASH-HA-RA.
读者@拳头山上的小狐狸
City. 这个怎么样?
外专回复:
Certainly an urban name! People might assume it's spelt "Siti", which is an Indian name, so be prepared to tell them how to spell it.
读者@Molly.颖
一听到molly这个名字的时候,我就觉得应该是那种活泼可爱的小女孩之类的,是这样吗?
外专回复:
Molly is a classic name, and it does rhyme with jolly, so you can call yourself jolly Molly!
读者@刘晶
English name:Oxford (牛津) 中文名字:刘晶 这个名字可以不?
外专回复:
Sure, you can call yourself after a place. But be prepared to answer questions about whether you went to Oxford University or not!
读者@王磊
名字叫磊,7月生,叫leo怎么样?Leonard这个名字能不能随便叫啊?
外专回复:
Sure, Leo is a nice name that means lion and if it's close to your Chinese name, all the better for helping people remember both names.
读者@CSDN唐小引
女 Banbury 求教这个英文名怎么样?
外专回复:
This is quite an unusual name and is usually a last name. It gives me the feeling of something dependable and solid.
读者@veggieg
Keena求评价
外专回复:
A Hebrew name that means "brave" or "judged". It's usually a girl's name.
读者@🌼鄭瑋💃
名为 玮 ,请问应该起个什么英文名
外专回复:
Not sure if you're a guy or a girl, but if you're a guy maybe William? Or you could simply use "Way" since I think one syllable names are easy to remember.
读者@洪水猛兽
中文名“兴洪”,大神有何建议
外专回复:
Well, a lot depends on what you like. Look through some baby name sites for one you like the sound of or that sounds similar to your Chinese name.
读者@photo烁
我叫方钟烁,又很喜欢ps,起了个谐音名叫Photoshop怎么样?
外专回复:
Sure, you can call yourself anything you like. Photoshop will certainly be a memorable name, and maybe you can even contact the company to ask if they will sponsor your Photoshop program since you named yourself after them!
读者@#NicoLe💯
一直很想知道叫XX超 X超要怎么取英文名mo-尴尬
外专回复:
Well if you want something classic that is a "proper" name I would suggest Charles, since it sounds like Chao, your Chinese name. Do you like it?
读者@小胖儿一秒变大白
我的英文名Leavine Guislain,求点评
外专回复:
Wow, that is a very sophisticated sounding name! Where did you get it from?
读者@sugar
我姓苏,同学室友喊我苏哥,我选sugar做我的英文名,妥否?大家给我点建议!先谢谢了
外专回复:
Sure, but be prepared for a lot of jokes about whether or not you are sweet! Do note though, my friend who spent some time in Hawaii said it was a popular hooker's name there, so if you don't want that connotation perhaps choose something else.
读者@西小瓜先森
Van这个名字怎么样?我和外教说的时候,她不是很明白诶。
外专回复:
I like it, it is nice and short and a bit unusual. Maybe you can say you like Van Gogh?
读者@阿卷
Flora如何?有什么含义?
外专回复:
Not sure if you're a guy or a girl, but I would recommend making it Florence if you're a girl or Florian if you're a guy, because you don't want to be mistaken for "floor"! You can be Flo for short.
读者@W.M
我中文是 文鸣 英文叫Wim OK么?
外专回复:
Sure, but why not make it Whim, which means a fancy?
读者@Dreamy
我名字里有个梦字,给自己起的英文名叫Dreamy。请问怎么样啊??
外专回复:
Make sure you are actually Mr. Dreamboat if you call yourself this!
