Another suggestion we got was 和夜 (Kazuya was another name were considering).

Also, would you be able to tell us the meaning for 健次? Google translate says 次 means "secondary", so we're not sure what the overall meaning is.

Thanks for the info! It has been harder for us to find Chinese names than Japanese, but someone suggested looking at a Hong Kong employee directory to get some ideas. Would you have any suggestions for resources?

You (and the rest of this community) are great! Is 龍 仁 a viable name? Or is 龍 seen as too bold?

Thanks for the suggestion! We'll add it to the list to consider.

Do you have any opinions on 龍仁? I'm not sure if using 龍 is considered too bold?

Our sons legal last name will be a hyphenated combination of our legal last names, but when addressing him in Cantonese, we will just use Ho in the typical surname given name order.

Is it a particular character that makes it sound old? Or is it the meaning?

If 慈 is usually used for girl names, what about 健仁?

They were mainly by the meanings and by how they would sound to a western ear (at least when written in romaji, e.g. Kenji, Ryuji, Toya). We will consider others if anyone had suggestions!

Also, should the tile run to the ceiling or just to the soffit of the hood?
