Mommy heard from her MSN kakis (Dec mommies) that tagging is now the latest trend, and she hope either 1 of her kakis will tag her so that she can start writing. Finally someone tag on her and this super blur Mommy's 1st thought was Aunty Grace when she saw the word Jayden appeared, without seeing that it is Jayden Tang. Haha... So it was Aunty Lily (Yang Yang aka Jayden Tang's Mommy) who has tagged this super blur Mommy of mine...
How did I get my chinese name?
As soon as Mommy found out that she was pregnant, she told Daddy that she wants the chinese word 恩 to form part of my chinese name. The reason why she chose 恩 was she strongly felt that I am a miracle from God and we should give thanks (感恩) for His Mighty Works.
Somehow it was a confirmation from God when my Por Por (AMK) also mentioned to Mommy that she wants 恩 to be 1 of my chinese name character. Por Por has been praying fervently to God that Daddy & Mommy will have a child soon, and now God answered Por Por's prayer.
During the routine gynae's visit at Uncle Fong Yang's clinic, I have been using my back to face my parents & Uncle Fong, so my parents did not find out my gender. They came out with 2 names - 恩齐, 恩泓 if I am a boy and 恩琦 if I am a girl.
Finally my gender was known after Mommy gone for her amnio test. So 恩琦 shall be KIV if my parents decided to try for 2nd baby and if it is a 'mei-mei'.
Daddy has been searching for a book about calculating the strokes of chinese name to determine if it is good or bad names, as his current one was a old edition. After much searching, he finally found the new edition at a bookshop in IMM Jurong. He was so engrossed in calculating the strokes for the 2 names he had earlier on. After much calculation, he told Mommy that these 2 names are no-no for me as there are considered bad when combine with Daddy's surname 饶.
Daddy has to re-calculate to find the most suitable name for me and finally after days of calculation, he decided on 维恩 as this name combined with 饶 fits to a T and it bring forth good things in my life.
Why Ernest?
The reason is very simple because Mommy wanted a Christian name that rhyme closely to 恩(En), so she chose Ernest.
Why Wee An?
Also very simple reason. Daddy feels that we should not forget our roots and he insisted that I should have a dialect name on my BC and not just a hanyu-pinyin name after my surname. After discussing with Suk-Suk Marcus, "Wee An" is the closest match to Daddy's dialect group - Khek.
I supposed all of you are used to hearing or calling me EnEn. Let me present my full name to everybody. I am Ngau Wee An Ernest (Rao Wei'En - 饶维恩).
Now it is my blur Mommy's turn to tag on Aunty Eunice (Ziv Ziv's Mommy).
