The name I was born with, Burkimsher, is always misspelled when people type it. I had a chance to choose my own Chinese name. I had friends with amusing names: Yi-ting was eating, Wei-ting was waiting, and let's not mention Shi-ting. Those are all quite normal names there! I laughed at first, but realised that I remembered their names much better than other friends. So I chose my name to be 台平, Tai-ping. Because I'm typing. This is now my legal name on my ID card there!
