Re: [Ask ] Why do we have English name?
※ 引述《ezhik (ezhik)》之銘言:
: It happened to me so many times when I made new friends abroad,
: they asked me why I have and use English name to introduce myslef.
: Before I got those questions from people,I never thought about the true reasons.
: The reasons might be following,
: First, easy to remember
: Second, feel like easy to intergrate urself with others
: Thirs, others
: But the thing is Japanese or Korean people I know who live in US,
: They still use their real Japanese/Korean names.
I also introduce myself with English name to foreigners. Maybe it's like a
saying "When in Rome, do as the Romans." We gave chinese name to some foreigners,
didn't we? I got my English name "Dennis" since going to cram school when I was
10. It takes time to get used to my new name, it's just like another
identification. You have to response when people call "Dennis" even if you
hadn't realized you are indeed that person.
