[quote=DODGER,301372]An old friend of mine from Taiwan told me that on his first day at school the teacher gave the class western names .That was 60 years ago. Another Chinese friend of mine who I used to call Mr.XX asked me to give him a name as he found it embarrassing to be called Mr. all the time. So I thought up a name. I find it a little confusing here though when some locals use their western name to me and their Chinese name to my wife. So I prefer to use their Chinese names even though I still mix up the Ma Juns’ with the Pan Jings Dodger.[/quote]
