Guest luna81 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 rosemary thu hong daoDANNY'S COUSIN!! lol go daos It's so close to a my friend's name. Her English name is Rosemary, she also have a Hong in her name, and her last name is Cao. Some things I learned about Vietnamese names lately. It's usually four syllable. Thi is a common middle name for girls and Van for boy. My mom says its because Vietnamese names is mostly unisex, and the Thi and Van is used to differentiate girls from boys. There's two first name, the first one is the add-on to make it sound prettier but the real name is the second one. Americans don't understand this and always just call me by the first one and I got used to it. My mom gets frustrated sometimes, because she says that's not what she named me. I should either be called by my full first name, or if it's going to be shortened, call it by the second one. I'm too paranoid to give away my full name. But my nickname at home is Luna but no one really call me that, it's always Na. Nguyen and Tran are 2 of the 16 royal families who ruled. People have these last names are either descendents of royalty, might have changed it voluntarily to show loyalty, or they might have been forced to changed their last name to the ruler at the time. My mom told me there are a lot of Nguyens because the King wanted everyone to change to his last name (Nguyen) and whoever didn't do so, were killed. After his reign, some people reverted back to their original surnames. Few of you might be of royal blood. COOOOL! There's many different royal families, but the people who are considered of royal blood right now are the Nguyens from Hue since they're were the last royal family in Vietnam.
