Incomplete list of great Chinglish names

---

So, many of my students have chosen or been given some hilarious English names. I've put together a short list of my favorite names. I hope to add to this list as I spend more time here in China. Ok, so my favorite names so far are:

Yummy
Deathknight
X-ray
Cappuccino
Cinderella
Eleven
Jill (boy's name)
Ian (girl's name)
Lion
Recnaduzi (formerly known as Whisper, but is ironically outspoken in class)
Ronaldinho (as in the Brazilian soccer player...naming oneself after athletes is quite common)
Sprite
Fat Cat
Lion
Legolas
Leaf
Panda
Garden
Wonderful

You know that you're getting used to teaching in China when you stop feeling awkward saying things like, "Cappuccino, do you have something to add to this discussion“ or "Great speech X-ray!"


If you happen to be/have been in China and heard any other good ones, don't hesitate to send me a message.

When in China, due to my insane flow abilities, I usually refer to myself as either the rhymenocerous, or the hiphopopottamus.
