International namesIn the rapidly globalizing world in which we live, with many modern means of communication such as internet, e-mail and cell phones, the children of today will sooner or later come into contact with friends, co-workers or family from other countries. That’s why it’s advisable to give your children names that are easy to pronounce in foreign languages as well. Anticipate this by giving them a second or third name of a more internationally accepted nature.
For the same reasons, many Asian youngsters have an additional name that’s typically English. That helps them to communicate more easily with tourists, friends and co-workers in other countries.
