Chinese Names 1

Here are some Chinese names. The accent marks are there so you can see the difference in names. For example is "梦" is mèng and "蒙" is mēng though they can both be casually transcribed as just meng. Chinese is tonal so those accent marks make all the difference in the meaning, spelling and pronunciation. The translations are based on Mandarin Chinese tones and using Simplified Chinese. If you want Traditional Chinese characters, you can copy and paste a character into the dictionary at this link: Click Here. If there is a traditional character for it, it will show up in the search.
