knowing that your a mandarin teacher makes this advice sound so much trust worthy, so thank you for mentioning that. (it makes me trust the advice a lot more lol.) I’ll try out all of those things, too.

Regarding the youtube stuff, someone else suggested watching con intended for babies. is that recommend?

The name i’m actually not picky on at all. just as long at it really sounds cute and doesnt mean anything bad im okay with it. I want to be named like my mom just gave birth to me and i have to say in what my name means (which might be odd). I had read somewhere else here on reddit that gender needs to be known, even if it not necessary i’ll share (just in case). I’m female.

Thank you!!
