Naming Chinese Characters

Sep 05, 2011 10:43

This one is actually for a fanfic. Harry and Cho have a daughter, and after some thought I've decided I want her to have a Chinese name (because she's born in China and at the time Cho doesn't really have any plans of ever going back to England or seeing Harry again.) but I'm having trouble sorting out what I can and can't trust on the internet with regard to Chinese names. Can anyone point me to a reliable list of common names in China, or, if that's not possible because of the Chinese language/naming system, explain how I can come up with a(n anglicized) Chinese name that doesn't scream "Did Not Do The Research"?

chinese, china, wizards
