【HSK2-HSK3】EP63 Stop Using Awkward Chinese Names! I'll Give You a Real One for Free 别再取那些奇怪的中文名了！我免费给你一个真正好听的中文名
Chinese Around You | Graded HSK Mandarin Podcast 分级中文播客Show Notes
This episode is for everyone, all levels welcome. A good Chinese name can be a great conversation starter. A bad one can be… unforgettable for the wrong reasons. In this episode, we talk about how Chinese names are structured, three easy ways to make your own, and the funny things that can happen when you don't check with a native speaker first.
🎁 I'll make a Chinese name for you personally for free Leave a comment or review on whatever platform you're listening on. Tell me a little about why you listen to Chinese Around You, and include two things: your English name (or the one you'd like me to base your Chinese name on), and the feeling you want your name to have — cute, wise, brave, peaceful… anything that feels like you. Then just sign with your first name. I'll read through every single one. And in a future episode, I'll go through the names one by one and create Chinese names just for you.

A big welcome to our newest patron, John! Thank you for joining the Chinese Around You Patreon — your support keeps every episode free for learners everywhere.
You know that Chinese friend who's always polite, always remembers the small things you say, but somehow keeps their distance in groups? They might actually be into you. Here are 5 crush behaviors only Chinese people do, see if they match.
You walk into a shop just to look around, yet shop assistants keep trailing you, constantly recommending products and pushing you to buy. You hate the awkward atmosphere but don’t know how to politely send them away. You also struggle to ask for trying on clothes, tasting snacks or testing goods naturally, only able to gesture silently. Master these short lines, and you can wander shops freely without being disturbed, plus ask to try any item confidently.
I haven't seen comments on these vocab episodes yet, and I honestly don't know if you're loving them or if they're just not your thing. If you want this series to continue beyond HSK 1, let me know in the comments. Even a quick “keep going” or “yes” counts. If this podcast gets 10 comments, I'll take that as a green light and start working on the next HSK level right away. No pressure, just if you want more.
Thanks for being here. This podcast is where stories, language, and connection meet. Whether you’re here to learn Chinese, find calm, or feel less alone—you belong. I’m so grateful you’re listening.
