Nihao, people!

I'm trying to find a good Chinese name for myself. What are you favorite girl names in Chinese and their meanings? The ones that derive from the word water are especially welcome because that is my element.

Thanks!

You can put "淼" into your Chinese name. It is composed of three "水"（water in Chinese). Then you can just randomly pick up a surname.

How about "shiyu" 诗雨
诗 shi means poem, poetry
雨 yu means rain (contains water )

Maybe too chinese traditional. Just for refrence consider.

Shiyu is beautiful! It's a good match because I like poetry and the rain!

Oh, thats nice.

Oh, shiyu is so nice for a elegant girl

damn admin, why you delete my poster?
i just give her my own advice, and simpily one suggestion can't hurt anyone.
or this website is powered by GFW?

i still think it's fine for girls to have a name like 马山花 or 牛招娣
it's just common name like Hart, Hans in deutschland, or Ivan in russia,
what's wrong with that?

Hi,Aquanetta:
I see you're very active in this forum,hehe... Dou you want to know more abtou Chinese culture and some intersting things? You may add my MSN: realbigws_1983@hotmail.com , ha ha ~~~

first,i need to know what your english name is....-_-#

tell you the truth 淼 is no common used as I know.
and 诗雨 is not bad, but 雨 is used less.
诗 is actually very pretty.
maybe 佩诗, or just 诗, or 慧诗.
佩 I dont know how o translate into english. but its commonly used for girls.
慧 means like wisdom. usually are for girls.

I would like to have a Chinese name, too... and originally I thougt about translate my real name, it means good victory , but there are so many possibilities and many of chracters I wanted to use are actually used for male names and the mine is a female... I dont know if there is somebody who could help me but it really would make me happy , xiexie!!!

You could always call yourself Victoria. good female english name and sounds like Victory.

I knowand I also like that name but I would like some Chinese sound because it is more interesting
I thought about you sheng , it menas victorious and "you" is wrote like "good " in this word and "sheng" like "victory"...but I dont know if it can be used for a name...or maybe Ying jia means winner and "jia" also can mean good....I really dont know because I only have started to learn Chinese...

Oh haha I thought you were looking for an English name, haha Not sure about a Chinese name for it sorry.

That's ok

Maybe you don't want to use 雨 and 诗.

First, they are too common.
Seond, having rain in your name is a pity, and maybe you are not poet?
Third, start with a family name instead.

I speak Chinese and English. Anyone likes the name
with a 燕？ (yan) 燕 is basically some kinds of bird
or some other that I can't explain in English. It's
a girl name.

why not use 慧丽（huili)? means cleve and beautiful girl.

How to write down xian gei?
