Do East Asian immigrants give their kids ching chong names, or do they give their kids proper, decent names?

Have you never met an American-born East Asian?
>>51766296
>ching chong names
Seriously, 'murica?
Usually if they give them a chingchong name, they have an American name they use instead.
I work with some guys that are Chinese but go to church and have biblical names. It's weird.
Statistically speaking, Asian-Americans are vastly more likely than European-Americans to choose "traditional" names like John or Andrew instead of shit like Brayden.
used to be ethnic name, we uses combination of western and local names nowadays. some still given chinese name as non-legal name
Most nipo-brazilians I know are already on their third or fourth generation here and have portuguese names. A few have japanese names.
>>51766424
some still given chinese name as non-legal name, so they have 2 names*
>Know guy with Jap dad
>Anglo name
why
>>51766480
Think about it, if you moved to a foreign country you'd prefer your child to have a name that doesn't stick out, so he/she wouldn't be bullied or something.
>>51766551
Pssssst
We're not Anglo
>>51766296
They usually have a western name and a chinese name, m8.

>>51766598

>>51766296

Every Chinese girl here is named Julie. I don't know why.
Japs keep their Jap name
Koreans keep their Korean name but use western for school/English speakers
Chinese either same as Korean or western named
HK Chinese always have an old time English name like Winston and that is legit their name
>>51766763
seriously, they remind me of Koreans with false Japanese name in Japan

One of my best friends is called José Hirai
>>51766296
My son has a Christian name and a Chinese name.
>>51766296
East Asian immigrants generally give their child the name of a respected family friend to help them fit in.
So the names tend to be both conservative and one generation behind.

*respected LOCAL family friend
What if a guy marry a jap girl and decides to give their kid a jap name ? living outside japan

I think that'd be weird, but to each their own.
If they were living in Japan and at least one of the parents in japanese I'd think it'd be normal to name their child with a japanese name.
>>51767285
sério ? eu acho os nomes japs muito bonitos, e o unico nome "ocidental" que eu acho legal é Apollo
[spoiler]fuggggg eu sou muito gay[/spoiler]
Why don't asians pick non-regular names though? It's fucking weird when I go to the supermarket and there's this chink who can't speak a word of spanish called fucking Marcelo.
>>51766296
I know a guy with Japanese parents, obviously he's ethnically a Jap too.
He's got a normal argie name but he's got a nip surname. Sounds weird as fuck.
I'm not gonna say his name, but imagine it to be something like Gonzalo Kobayashi or some shit like that.

Can confirm this. I knew this exchange student from HK. His European name was Francis. It's also quite autistic, how offended they are if you don't pronounce their real name 100% correctly. Bunch of crybabies.
>mfw Chinese select a "Western" name for them when they are a child.
>mfw there is nothing more painful than listening them speak English.
>mfw most of these names are not known and even less known with their shit pronouncatipon.
>mfw iPhone is the sponsor of Chinese expat students.
