Names are very personal possessions. They reflect our personal and cultural

identities, and pleasing names signal your intelligence, your credibility, and your wit.

That is why parents go to great lengths to give their babies good names.

In the traditional Chinese culture, people attached great importance to names, as

evidenced in the old saying “It’s more important to teach children skills than grant

them a thousand pieces of gold, whereas it’s even more important to bestow good

names on children than teach them skills”(赐子千金，不如教子一艺；教子一艺，不

如赐子好名).

1. What is your name? Is there any special meaning?

Tips: When selecting a name, people usually take into consideration the following

factors:

Good wishes/hopes 寄以希望 In memory of someone 纪念某人 Preference for one word 对某个字的偏好 Family genealogy 家庭宗谱 Lack of five elements 五行缺一部分

2. What do you get from these two names --- 金武(female) and露露(male)？

Tips: We usually judge a person basing on our fixed ideas, but sometimes we may

make a mistake.
