You will have to let us know how the name is written in Chinese characters before we can tell you what it means. There are many homophones for "Jia" and "Jie".

Relinquished, that might or might not be the right meaning. The best way by far to find out is by asking Jiajie herself.

Sorry for taking so long to reply to this! His first name is 嘉杰! Good guess Rita!

I did ask him what his name meant but he didn't really know how to acurately translate it though.

I think it's a good name!

ok, the first character means "good", the second refers to someone out of the ordinary or a hero. So put it together and you get......... someone who's righteous and heroic
