skylee Posted August 14, 2007 at 04:13 PM Report Posted August 14, 2007 at 04:13 PM 夏 瘌痢 (Xia Lali) is one way of saying it. Here Summers is translated to mean the season summer (Xia) and put in front according to the convention of Chinese names, whereas Larry is transliterated. :mrgreen: Other options include 夏拉利 (Xia Lali, same pronunciation as the one above but written in different Chinese characters), 拉利森馬斯 (Lali Senmasi), etc. PS - don't be offended when you find out what the first name means.
