[Guest NEYUGN93]

 

 

 

 

ARGH!!!! lucky... you guys have viet names xP i guess cos it would not be used for me... well instead i have this weird retarded chinese name T.T

 

 

Anyways I'm a Nguyen eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! ^^

 

[Guest tammy2012]

 

 

 

 

ok my name in english is just plainly Tam Nguyen.. i have a middle name too but just dont include it in when i turn in stuff and such

 

 

and my viet name was suppose to be Minh-Tam Thi Nguyen

 

 

but when i was born they liked typed it in wrong or somethin...they typed it into *meaning my birth certificate* as Tam Minh-Thi Nguyen..

 

 

so yea it sounds all weird..i dont know for sure about my middle name ..cuz its just suppose to be Thi but then on the paper it says Minh-Thi..so yea i have no idea what to follow...

 

 

oh yea since i was born in america and around my friends and everything i noticed that in vietnam everytime u have a kid i dont think that kid would get a new nor different middle name...u just take what ur mom has..and if ur a boy then u take what ur dad has..

 

 

while in america they're all different...so is this part of our "culture" or all over in asia and is only different in america?

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.
