[Facts] Re: Names for Chinese students
'Successful', 'powerful', 'Rich', 'Handsome' ? Happily the days when people named their children "Traktor" and "Five-Year-Plan" are gone for good :)
Well the simplest approach would be to use the "search" function at the main page http://www.behindthename.com/, ticking "search for meaning"
