Get Yer Chinese name!

This site will allow you to input your first, last name, DOB, characteristics and will give you a name in Mandarin Chinese. My Chinese name is An Rui Yan. Blogger would not load the characters however.

Musing about names leads me to reminisce about various names I have encountered over the years while working in the medical records department. For instance, when I worked in my home town hospital, a set of twins were born 1n 1982; their names were Chastity Bell and Trinity Sue (born in 1982). How rhyming!

While working in a very very rural hospital in Alaska, my favorite first name of all was Ryan Bryan Corey Craig. I don't remember the middle name.

And last but not least my favorite name here at my current facility is Dolly Dimple Icenogle. I just love it.

PS: The most common first name in the world is Mohamed.
The most common last name in the world is Wong.

Kinda makes you wonder how many Mohamed Wong's there are.
