ULOG 012 - My name...

ULOG 012 - My name... | Ecency

I'm back to work today, working from home. SBS saves the day, Optus have had technical issues broadcasting the World Cup matches so my company has got the rights to broadcast them on their behalves in order for Australian watchers to be able to follow the event: World Cup: SBS to air all games for 48 hours after Optus streaming issues

Enough talking about work, lets talk about my name! 😂

There have been many Steemians who have difficulties pronouncing my nick @quochuy so I thought I might dedicate this ULOG (Log about you, so this is about me).

Nguyễn Đình Quốc-Huy

So that is my full name, Nguyễn Đình is my family name and Quốc-Huy is my given name. I would usually write it Quoc-Huy NGUYEN DINH because in English family names come last.

Quốc means country and Huy could be translated as "emblem", so Quốc-Huy would be the national emblem. In Chinese that would be 国徽 (guó huī).

The pronunciation is tricky to explain in a blog post but lets try.
Phonetic IPA: [kuək̚˧˦ hwi˧˧]

Quốc is close enough to "kwok" but raising the pitch at the end.
Huy would be like "Huey" but with a very short "u" with the "u" pronounced french style.

In Vietnamese, when a given name is composed of two words, you can make it short and call the person by the second word of their given name. So in my case, instead of calling me Quốc-Huy you can just call me Huy.

So, I hope I've shed some light on this name of mine hahaha.
