The first problem is that English names are too common, such as Henry, Jane, John and Mary. Just as foreigners name Zhao Zhiwei, Wang Xiaogang and Chen Xiaoping, it gives people a far-fetched feeling. Although there are no certain rules for naming names, it gives people a very important feeling.
Question 2. Do not understand cultural differences and commit taboos.
In addition, due to cultural differences, some names have indecent connotations, such as Cat and Kitty. In English slang, they refer to female genitals. Cat should be changed to Cathy and Kitty to Kate.
Question 3. Change your first and last name.
Generally speaking, people from non-English speaking countries may change their names when they arrive in the United States, but no one will change their surnames. This is related to family honor and will be related to heredity in the future. So, no matter how hard your last name is to pronounce, stick to it. It is very common for people to change their surnames when giving English names, such as Stuart Jianken Si Tong and Xiao Yanyan Yan Xiao. The following English surnames are acceptable, but it is best not to use them, such as Young Yang and Lee Lee.
Question 4. English first names and surnames are homophonic.
Some people have homophonic English names because their surnames have been called many times. However, such English names are acceptable, but the full names are not natural, such as Xiaoshan Shawn Xiao, Zhong Qi Jone Zhong, Zhou Xun, and feel at ease.
Question 5. Don't know grammar, use the wrong part of speech
Names are usually nouns, not adjectives. Some people don't understand this rule and use adjectives to name them, such as Lucky, which is actually not an English name.
Question 6. Use the wrong gender
Occasionally, people get the gender wrong, such as the lady named Andy Andy, Daniel.
