            Exactly the same except the title is BIRTH EXTRACT. I made a photcopy of the birth cert before surrendering it 😄 Just a keepsake for memory.

            Same thing happened to me too!
            I did my 3 yo son's birth-cert within a month of his birth. But at that time I could not think of his Chinese name for him. They told me birthcert name can be changed within 1 year so I thought still got time. About 9 months later, I finally decided on his Chinese character name and went back to do the birthcert. Who knows the officer gave me an \"Extract of Birth Cert.\" and do away with the original! I was so sad and pissed, they told me if I were to change the English name, it is allowable but to ADD IN a Chinese character name is equivalent to I dunno what hence kerna got to return old one and get an \"Extract\"!
            :x
            I just feel so sad just because of this my son now got an \"Extract\" Birth Certificate instead of the original. But we Chinese must put in the Chinese character no matter what, right? Also they said within 1 year it is OK to change! Really don't understand.
            😛

            By the way, also dunno whether you encounter this but when I went to add in the Chinese character name, the officer asked me to explain why didn't I add in at the beginning when I did the birth cert? I said I could not decide on it yet. Then she further insisted that my husband came with me and sign something or to do collection or whatever. The whole time I felt that they were very suspicious of something (and suspicious of my request) but I dunno what they were thinking about. 😐

                I once know of a girl named 蝶影, and her official English name is her hanyu pinyin name \"Die Ying\". :faint:

                    My friend's Chinese name is 思婷

                    Her English name is Shiting

                    One colleague's name is Harry Kok, no dialect nor pinyin name
                    Two HK colleague's names are Monica Cheng and Nancy Or

                    These make me very conscious and cautious when naming DD 😐
