My
English
Name
-
Lily When
I
was
born,
my
parents
gave
me
a
Chinese
name
that
means
"small,
quiet
flower."
However,
when
I
started
attending
school,
I
realized
that
having
an
English
name
was
almost
a
requirement
for
communication
with
my
foreign
teachers
and
peers.
After
much
consideration,
I
decided
to
choose
the
name
Lily. I
chose
Lily
as
my
English
name
because
it
is
a
beautiful
flower
with
delicate
petals
that
symbolize
purity
and
innocence.
It
is
also
a
name
that
is
easy
for
non-native
speakers
to
pronounce.
While
I
am
proud
of
my
Chinese
name
and
the
culture
it
represents,
I
understand
the
importance
of
having
an
English
name
for
daily
communication
in
a
globalized
world. Having

English
name
has
allowed
me
to
seamlessly
communicate
with
people
from
different
parts
of
the
world.
It
has
also
given
me
a
sense
of
identity
and
belonging
in
the
English-speaking
world.
Whenever
I
introduce
myself
as
Lily,
I
feel
a
connection
with
others
who
share
the
same
name,
regardless
of
their
cultural
background. However,
I
must
admit
that
there
are
times
when
I
miss
using
my
Chinese
name.
It
is
a
name
that
is
unique
and
special
to
me,
and
it
reminds
me
of
my
roots
and
heritage.
I
believe
that
one's
name
is
an
essential
part
of
their
identity,
and
it
is
essential
to
maintain
and
embrace
all
aspects
of
one's
identity. In
conclusion,
my
English
name
Lily
has
allowed
me
to
connect
with
people
from
all
walks
of
life
and
cultures,
and
I
am
grateful
for
that.
At
the
same
time,
I
am
proud
of
my
Chinese
name
and
the
culture
it
represents.
Both
names
are
an
integral
part
of
my
identity,
and
I
will
continue
to
cherish
and
use
them
both.
