Yeah I am going to a trip to Taiwan in X units of time for Y purpose (I want to avoid being doxxed) and the event organizers told me I need a Chinese name (idk for what exactly tbh).

So there you go. I’m pretty sure the chinese name means something like “complete enlightenment” (or at least that is a possible interpretation, which I’m going with cause its cool af).

I kinda wanted to do something with “xiao” because I find it cute and almost girly (although I think Chinese people wouldn’t find it as such), but it’s fine I guess.

      Afaik all names have meanings, the current language is just hundreds of years or miles divorced from the origin of the name for many. My full name translates as (He Who Guards) (The Village By The Moor) (Herald of Destruction), but it’s across 3 languages that haven’t been spoken in around a 1000 years.
