Can I choose any English name I want? I feel like there are a lot of duplicate English names.

English names are chosen casually, and this is also true for Europeans and Americans. Most of the time when naming their children, they often have to commemorate a certain person, so they are used to naming their children after the person they commemorate.

Chinese people don’t have this habit of naming. Just choose one you like or are familiar with. Generally, it has nothing to do with your Chinese name. Finally, don’t forget to put your last name at the end.

For example, Sushan chen; Helen yang; Joanna zhou and so on.

Things to note are:

1. Chinese surnames generally use Hanyu Pinyin. A few surnames have changed, such as Wang (wong instead of wang), Li (Lee instead of Li), and Zhang (customarily use chang) - this is the name of Hong Kong, Taiwan and old-fashioned overseas Chinese. New immigrants from mainland China are more accustomed to using Hanyu Pinyin directly.

2. It is better to choose a common English name so that others can remember it. It is best not to have any special meaning to avoid misunderstandings. For example, some names may be called more by Germans and some Russians. Some Jews call you more. Taking these names may make people think you are a descendant of something.

3. If you are an introvert, it is best to choose the first letters of X/Y/Z. If you want to attract attention, you can choose the first letters of ABC, which will be clicked first when you call the roll call. .

4. Pay attention to distinguish the common names of men and women.
