[quote=JSUMMERS83,295103]I've seen a book of translated English names in the hands of a person who was trying to sell me a personalized stamp in a couple of the tourist cities. I'm sure you can buy one somewhere, but just realize that all you're getting is a transliteration. There's very little meaning in those types of names, it's just sounds that follow the same pattern as English. I have actually taken on two names here: a transliterated name used to help those who don't speak English and want to say my name correctly and one given me by my close friends here in China (one that actually has a meaning).[/quote]
