·Yes, I was named after my grandmother. (named after) 以...命名，起名。
·My name is Suntao, Tao literally means billows or large waves. 我叫孫濤，濤字面意思是波濤，海浪。
·My parents named me Wangdong, something to do with the "solar term", the beginning of winter. 我父母給我起名王冬，和24節(jié)氣有關(guān)，立冬。
·No it doesn't. To me it's just a couple of sounds put together. 沒特別的意義，對(duì)于我來說，這就是幾個(gè)音拼湊在一起。
·My name is NOS, was picked by my dad - Micheal Yu, it represents... 俺叫新東方，俺爹俞敏洪給我起的，它代表……
·I was named Eve. I don't like it. I can't stand it for religious reasons. I don't like being named after the woman who picked the apple in the Garden of Eden. The only thing I like about it is that it's short and easy to pronounce and spell. 我叫Eve，我討厭這個(gè)名字，我不能忍受的是宗教的原因。我不喜歡以一個(gè)在伊甸園里摘下蘋果的女人而起名。讓我喜歡的一點(diǎn)就是，不長(zhǎng)，而且容易發(fā)音，拼寫。

·Respect for ancestry. The specific way is to add before the name of forefathers characters like xi(希), zun(尊), xue(學(xué)), zong(宗), jing(敬), yang(仰), mu(慕), etc. And from the new name, e.g. Qian Zongni(錢宗尼),Yu Muyuan (于慕淵), Fang Jingyu(方敬御).

For example, Cao Mengde(曹孟德), Liu Xuande(劉玄德),Zhu De(朱德).
