Why Chinese Should Not Have Christian or Western Names!

Confusing Chinese NamesCaller : Hello, can I speak to Annie Wan (anyone)?


Operator : Yes, you can speak to me.


Caller : No, I want to speak to Annie Wan (anyone)!


Operator : You are talking to someone! Who is this?


Caller : I'm Sam Wan (Someone). And I need to talk to Annie Wan (anyone)! It's urgent.


Operator : I know you are someone and you want to talk to anyone! But what's this urgent matter about?


Caller : Well... just tell my sister Annie Wan (anyone) that our brother Noel Wan (no one)has involved in an accident. Noel Wan (no one)got injured and now Noel Wan (no one) is being sent to the hospital. Right now, Avery Wan (everyone) is on his way to the hospital.


Operator : Look if no one was injured and no one was sent to the hospital, then the accident isn't an urgen t matter! You may find this hilarious but I don't have time for this!


Caller : You are so rude! Who are you?


Operator : I'm Saw Lee (Sorry).


Caller : Yes! You should be sorry. Now give me your name!!!

I have also added some unique names in Chinese.


Lucy Ho - you die, good (Hokkien) Tanya Khoo - wait for a while (Hokkien) Bartholomew See - cat has fallen and died (Hokkien)

Aiyoyo! Better call ourselves simple Chinese names like Ah Lian, Ah Hua, Ah Mei,Ah Tyng, Ah Yinn, Ah See, Ah Yann, Ah Choo, Ah Gaik, lah. Make life less complicated mah. !!
