(This is absolutely true). For example one dish is called "Chicken Saliva". The reason the Chinese restaurants have translated this dish into "Chicken Saliva" is because it is so nice that when you eat it your mouth salivas. So what is the Chinese name for; 1. given name and a surname; Tony Rice. 2. desired essence: a. Personal Character and Skill - upright, alert, can see the wood b. Wealth and Fortune - I will never worry about money c. Beauty and Appearance - nature tried very hard, but... d. Mind and Intelligence - Often bright, often burning, often no idea at all e. Strength and Power - More than you can fit on a needle point 3. desired Birthdate by Day, Month, Year; 8 August 1978 (Tony Rice is an alias I have used in the past) flam ing balloons ID: 626949 ·

Last modified: 26 Aug 2007, 10:44:59 UTC Your Chinese name is Ran Tian nu. Exert/strive/make effort, Sky/heaven/god/celestial, Ran. Interesting. I ran the same thing as you Beets and got a different name for Tony Rice. But then I realized it would pick a slightly different name sometimes. I got these names; Ran Tian ning, Ran Tu ning, Rao Tian ning, Rao Tan ning, Ran Tan ning, Ran Tian ning, Ran Tou ning, Ran Tian ning, Rui Tian ning... and I'm sure there are more As for my own name, ... Pan An ning, Peng Ao ning, Peng Ang ning, Bi An ning, Pan Ang ning, Bai An ning, Peng Ang ning, etc. I guess I have more aliases than I thought ;) flam ing balloons ID: 626992 ·
