    　　In China names have very clear meanings．If a girl is called Mei, her name means “beautiful”．If a boy is called “Wu”, his name means “ like a soldier”．Names in English－speaking countries are like this too．The girl's name Joy is probably chosen because the parents with their daughter to be joyful and bring joy to others．If a girl is Ruby, it may be because of the beautiful valuable stone．

    　　Parents often pick names that can be shortened．They might choose such names because they want to be able to speak to their child in a personal way．
