New Members mimimimosa Posted July 11, 2012 at 02:22 AM New Members Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 at 02:22 AM Hi I'm new here I'm Vietnamese and have a Vietnamese name but I don't know the meaning of it. So recently I searched on google and found out my name is the same as the name of a mountain in Vietnam so I got the characters for the name of the mountain which is 御屏 Can someone tell me what it means? Thankyou I would appreciate it very much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YuehanHao Posted July 12, 2012 at 03:18 AM Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 at 03:18 AM A bit more background on the "imperial screen": http://baike.baidu.c...ew/2564904.htm: 位于顺化市区南4公里处，俨如顺化的屏风。 https://en.wikipedia.../wiki/Ngu_Binh: It was called Nui Bang (Even Mount) and renamed Ngu Binh in Gia Long's reign. [as we know, his reign began in 1802] https://en.wikipedia...ki/Hue_vietnam: Huế ( listen) is the capital city of Thua Thien – Hue province, Vietnam. Between 1802 and 1945, it was the imperial capital of the Nguyen dynasty. I am not capable of saying for certain, but perhaps this makes sense? 约翰好 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylee Posted July 16, 2012 at 12:24 PM Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 at 12:24 PM You are Vietnamese, and you are named after a mountain in Vietnam. It doesn't sound that strange to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
