[quote=FAERIEQUEENE,39216]I like linguistic games! => Paul, what springs to mind immediately is to use a sound from Trundley for the surname (usually pick the first sound) and use two characters with meaning and some ressembling sound for Paul for the name => eg 敦培李 =>敦(dūn) 培(péi) 李(lǐ) 敦 like “Dun” in Dunhuang (very splendid) If you are a teacher by profession in china, 培李 mean train the students 培 = train 李 = literally plum, peaches and plums signify pupils, students receiving inherited wisdom or education My Chinese is only average, I’m sure there are linguistic experts...[/quote]
