can either use characters that only signify foreign names, or use two Chinese characters that mean Beautiful and Happiness. A good Chinese name is not only phonetically[9] sound and rhyming but also rich in its connotation[10]. A translator will do his best to create a name that is both. Keep in mind picking names is actually a specialized trade in China. Picking the right name is not always an easy task. Still, it may be worth having your translator work on creating a more Chinese-like name, rather than a transliterated one. Not only will your name sound more authentic, you'll have a conversation-starter!
