About This Book
Thinking of a Chinese name for your baby but can’t decide the specific names? Without proper guidance, it can be quite difficult as every Chinese name has its own meaning.

Explore and discover the meanings of Chinese surnames and common personal names with this exhaustive study ever attempted. It is a subject that has fascinated both Chinese and non-Chinese for a very long time and is written for those seeking to understand the history behind Chinese names. The Chinese population of the world is made up of elements from many different districts in China, whose diverse customs and cultures have been increasingly influenced by those peculiar to the homelands they have adopted. The Chinese are however conservative in nature and beneath the changes can be found many undercurrents of customs, which persist till today, and if they can be identified, will repay the time devoted to their study.
