There has been a username challenge going on in Steemit. Initially I stumbled across this challenge through a post written by 
Here are the rules of the challenge in case you are 'lucky' enough to be asked:
My username is exactly my real name – Loh Jia Fui. My Chinese name is 罗嘉慧. I used to hate my English/Malay name when I was a small kid because it is weird and hard to pronounce. Since I was young, a lot of people asked about my English/Malay name after knowing my Chinese name. I’m curious like them too! Nope, my English/Malay name is not translated from any Chinese dialects or whatsoever.
If I remembered correctly, I asked my parents when I was still in kindergarten. My name is merely a “beautiful accident”. So, here’s the story. When I was born, my parents intended to name me as Jia Hui （嘉慧）and my twin sister as Jia Shin (嘉欣). Both names were quite popular for baby girls that time. The officer in charge of registering new born babies registered my twin sister first and he/she picked up a phone call when he/she was about to register mine. He/she was distracted and didn’t listen carefully to the pronunciation of my parents and registered as ‘Fui’ instead of ‘Hui’. Since the officer is Malay, you know, they can never make sense of our Chinese names. My parents are not fluent in Malay at that time. They do not know how to tell the officer to correct my name. So, they just go with it. Yea, “Jia Fui”.
The moment I hear this story, I was like, “What? My parents are sure kidding me.” But it is true, so sad. “Do I have to live with this weird name for the rest of my life?” I asked. I kept grumbling to my parents that I want to change my name when I grow up. And my parents answered me that I could go to the National Registration Department and change it one day. As I grow up, I learn that there are a number of perks with a hard-to-remember and difficult-to-pronounce name. Like, for example, teachers won’t call me up so often in class as they cannot remember my name correctly. Hahah! It’s not that bad!
I don’t know what was going on in my mind back then that I dislike my name so much LOL. Guess it was because I was still a loss kid searching for her identity. If you asked me now, I’m perfectly comfortable to tell the world my name as “Jia Fui”!
Maybe yes, maybe no. I have no ideas. Or anyone has some good ideas on my username? I’m open to suggestions. :P
我的用户名就是我的真实名子。 我的英文、马来文名字是‘Jia Fui’,但是中文名字却是 ‘嘉慧’。 很多人在还不知道我的中文名字下会猜测着，我的中文名字可能是 ‘家菲’？真是哭笑不得。我以前可不喜欢我的名字了，这么难发音的，好奇怪啊。 还记得小时候的我还会常常吵吵嚷嚷着说，长大以后我就要换名字！
故事的由来是这样的，我的中文与马来文名字的差异是因为，当我刚出世，父母想要登记我的名字时，那位政府官员搞错了。父母口中念着‘Jia Hui’, 可是由于那官员当时正在接着电话，听错了，误把我的名字写成 “Jia Fui”。 这位政府官员是一位马来同胞， 所以不会察觉到这名字的奇怪之处。 当时我的父母不谙马来文， 所以即使他们想要改，也不懂要如何刚告诉那官员。 好吧，就注定这名字了。
长大以后才觉得其实这名字也挺好的呀，用了这么多年也都习惯了。
或许会吧，没有头绪，还没有想出什么有趣的名字。 还是你想要给点建议呢？欢迎留言哦。。 哈哈
