[quote=KUNGFUPANDA,360337]Name is very important to Chinese people. In order to find an excellent name for their children, the parents do everything that they can, consulting the dictionary, asking help from the elderly, checking their children's birth date and horoscope etc. You see, a name means a lot to Chinese people.

Recently, a guy sued the local PSB in the court. He said that the local PSB didn't allow him to use his name anymore. This guy's name is 赵 C(Zhao 4 C). Sounds a bit strange! Zhao's father hoped that his son could learn English very well so that he gave his son this name "Zhao C". C is the initial of "China". What's more, there are many words that start with "C". 赵 C is simple and easy to remember.

However, the local PSB said that he shouldn't have used a English letter in his name. Instead, he should use Chinese characters.

Both sides debated for a long time in the court. At last, they compromised. Zhao agreed to change his name and the PSB promised to do the related procedures for free.

What do you think? In your view, can he keep his name?[/quote]
