Meaning of Names
-
jedamum, since you already know my DD's name, it's quite obvious why we named her that.
And the other option chosen was by you, right? So which \"star\" did you name your DS's after?
EDIT/ADD: My DD is named for wisdom, among other things. Her Chinese name is derived from her English name and it refers to intelligence/wit. -

Haiz, can only submit poll once or am I so blur that there is a way to do it but dont know. :?
DD - weatlh
DS - Intelligent
Besides the meaning, their names are easy to remember, just like their mummy.

Love, Happiness and Health.

:salute:
but i can see that the 'intelligence' poll results is still leading (by 1 vote though
).

I always feel that nothing is more important than happiness. So my girl's name (both chinese and english) is all about happiness and cheerful. Coincidently, the person I admire a lot has this name meaning cheerful. And the Chinese name I choosed also fulfilled my husband's criteria - easy to write, less strokes

mine is values...i think :?
DS1 - name means 'handsome treasurer'?
DS2 - means strong and intelligient 2nd son...and currently...really very strong :!:
but the name are of english definition..for the chinese characters, as both me and DH not well-versed..we got those feng shui master to name it... -
All 3 names are chosen based on the 'fengshui' master :lol:
for first - Chinese (quiet w foresight) n english (flower-like)\\
second - chinese ( expand w foresight) n english (gifted)
third - chinese (heart w foresight) n english (holy)
luckily...all can used the same chinese character for the last word for their names ....

Ya.... the hanyu pinyin starts w 'R'. Yes, it is becoming popular and there's few in my kids school using the same character. But think the character difficult to write!shuting28:
