Why Chinese shouldn't have english name ??

Quite sometime ago, I received an email from my friend who sent me an email containing "Why Chinese shouldn't have english name ?" I had a really good laugh at the example shown in the
e-mail. Here are the examples.

Anne Chang (Mandarin)-Dirty

Anne Chin (Mandarin) - Keep quiet

Faye Chen (Mandarin) - Dusty

Carl Cheng (Hokkien) - Buttock

Monica Cheng (Hokkien) - Touching your buttocks

Lucy Leow (Hokkien) - You are dead

Jane Tan (Mandarin) - Frying eggs

Suzie Leow (Hokkien) - Lost till death

Henry Mah (Mandarin) - Hate your mum

Corrine Tai (Hokkien) - Poor fellow

Paul Chan (Mandarin) - Bankrupt

Nelson Tan (Mandarin) - Bird laying eggs

Leslie Tong (Mandarin) - Rubbish bin

Carmen Teng (Hokkien) - Leg hair long

Connie Mah (Cantonese) - Call your mother

Danny See (Hokkien) - Squeeze you to death

Rosie Teng (Hokkien) - Screws and nails

Pete Tsai (Hokkien) - Nose droppings



This is just for laughs. No intention to insult anyone. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
