There are many weird, inappropriate and bad English names in China.
Since living in China I have been surprised by how many people have English names that are not appropriate. Some sound like porn stars, some sound like bathroom air fresheners and others are just weird. Your English name is your choice, but I would suggest choosing a name that will help make you successful if you travel, live or work in the west, or just meet with English-speaking people.

Why I Help Chinese People Choose a Good English Name
Chinese people have been very kind to me since I have lived in China. In return I would like to help them for free to choose a good English name so they can be successful in English-speaking countries and working and making friends with English-speakers in China.
I have lived, worked and travelled in English-speaking countries in North America, Europe and Australasia so I have a good understanding of which English names are most suitable.
