[closed]Name the Baby

[monay]

Monay, did you married a kwai low? Your kids name sounds nice too.
nolaah, chinaman.

[siewjang]

ohhhhhh... what is their surname then?

[daLady]

So i had both, a little Ethan Jun-Ren....... :)So ngam..my son's name is Ethan, too...:) ...daBoss was the one who picked the name...

Do you have your kids' pics posted somewhere in this forum?

[daLady]

ohhhhhh... what is their surname then?Jun, maybe? That's unique..I've never come across that surname before.

Initially, I thought of having a monosyllabic Chinese name for my children but tak jadi coz had to follow the tradition - apparently there's a 'Tiong' book or poem where they fix the middle-name for each generation so that you know which generation ypou belong to despite the age gap...for my children's generation, the middle name is Wen and my choices for last name were so limited because daBoss was younger than most of his cousins.

[siewjang]

I don't think Monay have posted her kids pic.

Monay - wanna post up?

hmm.. i've heard of this kind of tradition book before... but don't think my family place much importance in it...

[LiLiaN]

ahjang, athena and me got same name but one year class difference... me in 97, athena in 98...

[siewhaw]

jia min my cousin's name. in my generation, we have the same middle name. you choose la.

jia hoe, jia wei, jia ying, jia jing, jia wong, gar loon, gar ling, gar dek, gar sen, gar king.

what else you want huh???
Haryo, GL. Yours cannot be used lar....all FALSE one lar... Jia (Mandarin) and Gar (Cantonese). :D

[siewhaw]

Since u like Kharen why not Jia Ren? Ren in chinese means kindness
Her Kharen should be pronounce as Khar-En not Kha-ren.
There...i told you Jang, that people will pronounce that wrongly...
For goodness sake, get it right this time...poor kid later. :(

[siewhaw]

My dear sis...this is final from me...my head already pusing thinking of all those possible names for your baby. The more unique you want, the harder and confusing it will be.

Kharmern (Carmen in English). You can name her as Jia Min in mandarin.

DON'T EVER GO FOR KHARENE (as though it should be pronounced as Jia En in mandarin...YOU ARE WRONG!). People will tend to pronounce it as Karen.

For those parents out there choosing name for your babies, please be very careful. Get names that are easily pronounced the moment you see it. Make sure it won't sounds like something horrible. Though you like it and it's unique, but your children is the one that will be suffering and they will be ashamed of their name.

All the best... :p

[siewhaw]

Haha... i'll just keep this two name in mind for the time being. Have you think of other name for me?

During our last trip home, mom said no need to count stokes. Just hantam anything. Don't know why she said that this time. Maybe she sian already?

Wah you booked Eunice and Eugene. Now want to prebook Kharmyn again. See how la :cool:

That is if I got a twin. Crackjet don't like Eunice anyway. So if you like Kharmyn, better grab it now... ;)

[monay]

ohhhhhh... what is their surname then?
Kong. So when he said his friend tease him and said ethan kong kong, i suggested he tell maya, i have a better suggestion, ethan hong kong or ethan king kong, grrrrrrrrr......

[monay]

So ngam..my son's name is Ethan, too...:) ...daBoss was the one who picked the name...

Do you have your kids' pics posted somewhere in this forum?

How ngam. I didn't know that. How old is your ethan? mine is 4+. No pics yet

[LiLiaN]

How ngam. I didn't know that. How old is your ethan? mine is 4+. No pics yeti think daBoy ethan is also about that age... daBoss/daLady, please confirm...

[Sila]

how cool. just imagine if i have that name, the teachers in school will not have the ability to ask me to answer any questions.
good strategy, gar loon! it's not too late to change your name, you know?? :D

[monay]

[JenX]

y wanna be so 'mat salleh' accent/name when we are asians leh? sometimes the baby cannot carry certain names wan

i strongly agree.

[Yvonne Allan]

I agree too. If you name your kid with "funky" name pronunciations then not only will the kid be teased at all times...ppl will find it difficult to call the name that it is suppose to be pronounce!!!!! Just look at my name..... everyone used to joke about my name during sports meet. When i am at the starting block and the anouncement comes on introducing the runners.....there it goes EEEgdi8fguhdklgbli felicia allan!!! Sigh..... wished the ground would just open us and eat me!!!! :(

[siewjang]

psst...when you think that you are supposed to closed shop but miracle came, this is what gonna happen

[siewjang]

...sometimes the baby cannot carry certain names wan...
I've heard those thing before. They usually pay the expert about RM200 to get a name for the baby. But sorry, it's against my religion.

[Yvonne Allan]

The ONE and ONLY time someone could pronounce my name correctly was the malay guy at the election poll. I was pretty surprise. He looked very che kai but i was impress. Even Denis (bf) was surprise and turn to lookat me...his eyes almost popped out!!!! hahahahaaa...... He has the same problem too. No one can pronounce his name correctly. Denis (ppl will call him Denise....Mitchel.....MICHAEL....Charles.....CHAR LESS)Sigh....... :rolleyes:

[JenX]

Well, guess u should discuss wif your hubby and i'm sure he'll choose a gud name.

[Yvonne Allan]

Yea....discuss it with ur hubby. Both of u will come to a conclusion soon. :)

[siewjang]

Oh, that's the conculsion. Kharlotte. I'm just testing to see anyone can mispronounce the name :D (chinese is Jia Let - as in happy).
