This is just perfect for hanzismatter!

There are many different ways to translate “Diego”, but “Marco” is usually translated as “??”.

i want to make a tatoo as the word given already to u please send me that name,thank u…..
I wonder who comes up with these translations? I have a friend that got a really sweet tat that he was told meant “faith.” When I told him it really meant “to teach,” he freaked out and said “That’s what the Japanese exchange students kept telling me! I thought they were just messing with me!”
Poor guy. Should at least get his money back.

34 – fŭ – Trust (close)
35 – měi – Beautiful
36 – pīng – Peace (correct)
37 – wēi – danger (close)
38 – a bad version of 35
39 – not a chinese symbol i can either recognize or find in a dictionary.
40 – looks like “ai” which means Love. But that is an absolutely horrid looking attempt.
41 – close, but no cigar.
Oh and you should tell all these persons that there’s no direct translation for any of the names they’re requesting.
There is a useful tool at http://www.mandarintools.com/ that will give you a “Translation” of your name.
And for the rest, i just wouldn’t even try some of the things you’re suggesting. They’ll come out very weird and the connotations behind them are vastly different in other cultures. Be warned.
