Thought we'd do a fun one. Here are the most ridiculous names I have heard of in China, and also some cultural explanation on how names work in China/Chinese.

Here's some extra ones that didn't make the video - https://youtu.be/dsa4keU09Ek

Thank you for your support! Couldn't do it without you guys!

Chinese People Choose Ridiculous English Names - Why?

I dated a Chinese girl in Abu Dhabi named "Summer" so that fit. Filipinas seem to be graced by their parents with some howlers - two I know are "Hearty" and "Baby Jane" - terrible for business. One Korean gentleman I know took the name "Augustine" which helped his gravitas, but not by much.
