The Meaning of My Name

      The first meaningful moment in my life is to have a name and a nickname. My name is Yanjing Chen, and my parents gave it to me. It is (Chen)艳晶( Yanjing) in Chinese. In Chinese, people write the last name first. Yan is used to describe the color of flowers because it means colorful. Jing constitutes of three suns because means the sun in Chinese. In addition, Jing means sunshine. There is no history behind my name. However, it is my parents’ blessing to me. They gave me this name because they hope my life to be colorful, and I can smile every day like the sunshine. In addition, I have a nickname 豆豆 that my cousin gave this nickname to me. It is a cute name for Mr. Bean. Mr. Bean was a famous person in China when I was a little girl. My cousin loved his movie because MR. Bean was funny and humored. Also, my cousin thought I was cute and made my family’s life full of happiness like Mr. Bean. Therefore, my cousin wanted to call me 豆豆, and my family liked to call my nickname after my cousin gave it to me. In conclusion, I love my name and my nickname both because they are both part of my life.
