skylee Posted June 9, 2008 at 03:45 PM Report Posted June 9, 2008 at 03:45 PM 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". Quote

Lu Posted June 20, 2008 at 09:27 AM Report Posted June 20, 2008 at 09:27 AM Relinquished, that might or might not be the right meaning. The best way by far to find out is by asking Jiajie herself. Quote
Relinquished Posted September 14, 2010 at 03:26 PM Author Report Posted September 14, 2010 at 03:26 PM 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! Quote
The guy from Beijing Posted September 18, 2010 at 06:47 AM Report Posted September 18, 2010 at 06:47 AM 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 Quote
