Two names
Most of Taiwanese people will have two names, both in Chinese and in English. I think it is because sometimes people get confuse or difficult to call their names in Chinese. I have also experience that I got difficulties in calling and memorizing them. I could not even mention or remember one of my friends' name at first time. They are so proud when they mention their English names. Actually, I like to call them in their Chinese names rather than in their English names. If I call them, I feel I can learn Chinese pronouncation at least. And it makes me familiar with their names, too.
