I really want to use a FC who is Chinese, his parents are and he was born in the USA, and I want to give him and his NPC family names that is representative of that heritage, but I know that the last names come before the first name AND on my mind is also my friend (who immigrated w her family when she was young - though it was from a different part of E Asia) we able to choose an "enGliSH" name, which they did. So now I'm just over here a little confused, how (or CAN) I give him both a Chinese name AND a 'romanised' name, but still style it correctly?

hi there! a while ago created this guide that outlines some of the experiences i've had with naming conventions as a chinese american that you can take a look at.

to answer your question, yes, you can give your character both a chinese and a "western" name. as i said in my guide, it's very common that we have both and if he was born in a western culture like the UK or the US, he could have his chinese name be his middle name ( eg. mark yien tuan ) or just have his chinese name be a name reserved for chinese-speaking people ( ie. my chinese name isn't on my birth certificate or any official document but all of my family and family friends call me by my chinese name ) or he could just have his chinese name be the name that he uses in all spaces ( eg. simu liu ).

given your character's situation, it's totally possible that his parents, especially if they are immigrants, gave him both a chinese and western name. it is also possible that his parents did not give him a western name and that he uses his chinese name and chinese name only. it is ALSO possible that his parents did not give him a western name but when he was in school he decided to go by a western name as his 'preferred name'. all of these things are correct and possible, it's just about their family's choice and the character's character background.

as for naming order, yes, in east asian cultures, the order of names is surname then given name but when that transfers to western contexts, it's just flipped so it's given name then surname. for example, simu liu in western contexts is referred to as "simu liu," but in china, he's referred to as "liu simu" because liu is his surname and simu is his given name.

if you are going to roleplay him with a chinese name only in a context where he is american it would be best to refer him in the order of given name surname ( eg. simu liu ) because this is the order that he is most familiar with if he grew up in the US. the only way i could see him be referred to as surname given name ( eg. liu simu ) is if he is in the context of the chinese community ( ie. around family, chinese school, community centers, etc. ). which can also mean if he is someone with a western name, he can prefer that people outside of the community call him by his western name ( eg. mark tuan ) but reserve this chinese name for family/elders/etc. ( eg. tuan yien ).

please let me know if you have any other questions about this ! you can reach me here or over at my personal blog on @herorps

ways for your characters to meet + writing prompts

meet cute

your card declines and the person behind you offers to pay

you're the maid of honor at your best friend's wedding, your soon-to-be-lover is the best man

the coffee shop/café is packed with people and no free seats, you ask a stranger if you can sit at their table

we're at a get-together with mutual friends and the only ones without a date

a stranger notices you can't reach the top of the shelf, but before they can offer their help, you've accidentally gone and ripped down the entire bookshelf

you fall asleep on a stranger's shoulder on a long flight. when you wake up, you tell them they're free to use your shoulder as a pillow, which they agree to

you jump into a cab in New York City, but right as the Taxi driver is about to drive off, someone else jumps in

a mutual friend sets you up on a blind-date

while waiting in line, you start a conversation with the person in front of you,

coincidentally, we're both at a hotel, leaving our room at the same time. turns out we both had a one-night stand and it was terrible

for some reason you can't seem to navigate the map, so you ask a stranger for directions. they inform you you're holding the map upside down

you see a stranger sitting alone at a restaurant, and decide to join them

you're at a resort, and in desperate need to get away from your family. you hide in a wardrobe down in the lobby, and while in there, you discover that a stranger is also hiding there

you jump into a car thinking it's your friend's, only to find a stranger sitting in the passenger seat

you're stranded on the highway, struggling to change a tire. a car pulls over to help you, offering to drive you back into town when they deem your car undriveable

the hotel double-booked your room, you can either share it or sleep in the lobby

meet ugly

bumping into your soon-to-be lover on the street, spilling coffee all over their shirt

your friend has been pranking you all day, scaring you when you least expect it. when you go to pick up some food, somebody jumps out from behind you. thinking it's your friend, you turn around and slap them, only to find it's not your friend

you're at the store, arguing with a stranger over who should get to buy the last watermelon (or any other grocery)

you almost hit your soon-to-be lover with your car as they cross the street

''you took my parking spot'' ''I WAS HERE FIRST'' ''I WAS STANDING HERE WHEN YOU PULLED OVER. I HAD MY BLINKERS ON''

you bump into someone's car in the parking lot and they retaliate by bumping yours

you walk into a dressing room thinking it's unoccupied, but instead finds a man without his shirt on

your ex cheated on you, so you decide to go over to their house to cause some mishap, only to later on discover that your ex recently moved

i've been waiting in line for ten minutes and you decide to cut in front of me and i'm not very happy

you're at the bar, having just paid for a drink, only for someone to slide up next to you and take a sip of it

i've mistaken your apartment for my friend's, and has been banging on your door for the past ten minutes. you've finally had enough and open the door, screaming at me to leave you alone. then i start screaming, because it was a mistake. a couple minutes later, your neighbor flings their door open, scolding both of us for making a scene

we interrupt your regularly scheduled program...to bring you this important message.

My dog, Piper, is 14 years old. She has a bump on her head that has recently increased in size and bleeds non-stop for days. My only option is to have it removed— sooner rather than later since it is actively growing (it's grown from 2.5cm to 4.2cm in about a year). The total cost to have it entirely resected and for post-surgery treatment is almost $1500; I only have about $800 saved up. I'm asking for some help in raising the rest ($700).

It's not a lot but in return, I can offer to make roleplay resources for you (gif packs, gif icons, rp icons, etc.)— you can preview stuff I've made in the past, here. I can also make banners, PSDs, screencap packs, and more; just ask!

Piper is more than just my emotional support animal; she's like a child to me and it pains me that I'm not able to provide the care she needs. Please help us.

Please reblog this post. You can donate via Ko-fi, here. If you'd prefer to donate via Paypal, please DM me for my info.

CONNECTION TAG MASTERLIST! So I’ve been slaving away for the past few days coming up with connection subtitles for my roleplay, and I thought all my hard work might be useful to anybody interesting in finding some good quotes to use for connection tags! I was going to split them into specific relationship types/mood, but tbh I was…too lazy. So, here you go! Under the cut you’ll find approximately a BUTTLOAD (seriously guys, its a lot) of quotes to use as connection tags/titles!
