My English name is Joy, which has the same meaning as my second name in Chinese. When I got my second job I was asked to have an English name. Everyone in the office called each other with English name. At that time, I felt quite not myself at the very beginning when I was called Joy by colleagues whom I thought were totally strangers to me. (P.S. With all these years going by, when colleagues in this company call me by my Chinese name, I felt very weird. )
Getting back to how I get my English name, it's my husband, also my boyfriend at that time, who proposed that name to me, when finding me couldn't pick up a name after long search in an English dictionary.
Guess, what my second name is? which single character in Chinese has the same meaning with Joy?
My English name is Ben. How I got my English name?It's my English lecture who proposed it to me. I like this nickname, meanwhile, The pronunciation between Ben and “滨” are almost the same, moreover, Ben is named for a tall and strong and black eyes man. So, that’s how it comes. :loveliness::loveliness:
Camila 只因为发音挺好听
我的英文名是Cherry，音译过来和我的中文名相似（qianyu），直译过来是樱桃的意思，樱桃可以代表很多美好的事物，可以代表特别有活力的女孩子，很鲜活的爱情，它不仅象征着爱情、幸福和甜蜜，更蕴含着珍惜这层含义。而且 cherry，念起来很象cherish,cherish的意思就是珍惜，表示珍贵的事物。
在西方，大部份的人对Cherry的印象是甜美，可爱充满青春气息，而且热心助人。不过，请忽略其俚语的意思~~~:loveliness:
我的英文名是wafer, 取这个名字是因为大学的时候昵称是饼干，于是就这么叫起来了。现在进了太阳能企业才发现，wafer硅料是本公司主要原料之一，很妙的缘分呀。
