Several principles of choosing English names
How does that sound? How does that sound? The name, whether it sounds good or not, should be considered first, which is related to the feelings of you and the person calling you when others call you. After all, the name will be used for a lifetime, and sometimes it will be recited loudly, such as awarding prizes and waiting to see a doctor. China people's names are often like this. For example, "simple way to do things" sounds like "change", which can easily become a joke and a trouble to the owner of the name! Of course, besides being nice, it is also important to pronounce it easily. Terence is much easier to pronounce than Theodore, especially for people in non-American countries, names that usually "sound like words" will be easier to remember.
Just like Chinese names, every English name has its own meaning. Usually, the meaning of a name is what parents or elders expect of their children, so you can choose a name with positive meaning, such as wisdom, hope, happiness and sunshine. Usually, the meaning of English names is not the first consideration, because English names are different from Chinese names, and Chinese names can be "literal", but when addressing English names, we usually don't know what that name means, and of course we don't care too much. Therefore, use this database to query the meaning of names, as long as it is not negative. When looking for an English name, you must avoid finding a name that is out of date or doesn't sound good because of its beautiful meaning.
Is it unique? Or "the name of the vegetable market" (a dozen people answered when shouting at the vegetable market)? -the particularity of names and the popularity of names tend to. Every twenty or thirty years, the most popular names are different. For example, during 1900- 1950, John was always one of the top ten popular names, but after 1960 and 1970, the name John was no longer popular. Taking a popular name in this era can also be regarded as "keeping pace with the times." However, if you don't like having an English "vegetable market name" and don't want to be called "Michael B" or "Little Michael" in English class, then consider not taking a too popular name. Having a unique name is also a reflection of self-characteristics, but it is also easy to cause difficulties for others' pronunciation, spelling or memory. Unique or popular, depending on your personal preferences and choices! Nicknames or nicknames English names often have nicknames, which are unfamiliar to users in China. For example, Cathy is Catherine's nickname, Andy is Andrew's nickname, and American President Bill Clinton is actually william clinton's nickname. When Clinton was sworn in, his official name was william jefferson clinton. Why should we consider nicknames when choosing English names? Because some nicknames or nicknames sound naive, and nicknames are also common in English-speaking countries in the United States, if Margaret is called Peggy since she was a child, she may think that middle-aged Peggy is too naive and inappropriate. But for a long time, many nicknames or nicknames have been used as separate names. For example, Christina's nickname Tina is an example. According to the New American Dictionary of Baby Names (Penguin Book, 1985), Tina has been used independently since the beginning of the 20th century. Of course, in our society, we don't know much about nicknames, and we don't often call them. Therefore, the choice of English name includes nicknames or nicknames, which is up to individuals! The database also provides information about names and nicknames. Welcome to inquire.
