My name---revision
Double Water
Everyone should have their own name, and the name was significant in the first impression that helped people identify themselves. My grandfather named me Yuanyuan Fang because he listened to my great-grandmother and said that my life and my name need water. I also like my name very much because I was always the only one in class with a unique name in China and The United States. People still believed the right word could give their good luck in the future, which people are called Geomatic Omen in China. Geomantic Omen was a peculiar culture and traditional theory of China because it could use energy to improve people’s well being, success, and fortune in the relationships between nature and humans. My Chinese character is 沅沅 that there were three dots as the drop of water in my name. There is a famous river called the Yuan River in China, so my name means a lot of water. When I was young, I asked my grandfather why I had double Yuan, and my grandfather replied, “He hopes his granddaughter's life will get better and better.” I would never change my name since my grandfather gave my name at birth, and I have great respect for my grandfather.
Double water sounds so cool! I love my name because it is unique too.
ReplyDeleteYour name comes from the five elements of Chinese Feng Shui. I like your name very much. It's easy to remember.
ReplyDeleteYour story reminds me that many Chinese people are very superstitious and believe fortune telling, so there is a famous saying that is Not afraid of wrong life, most afraid of wrong name. Do you agree with it?
