Hej,Please read the little bit about translating names into other
languages, especially Japanese and Chinese. Your names may be okay
here, but in another language they could mean something silly or
offensive.
My Chinese ESL student translated some names for me once, but she did
a phonentic translation (except for one name, Candy, which she
translated into the Chinese word for candy). It's a tricky thing,
translation . . .
