German man, Chinese lady, what name should they give a baby?

Question

Wendel is like the German word for "Diaper" thats not good

Answer 1

OK, here are my suggestions...

FOR A BOY:

1) Liam (This is a variant of "William," which is of Old German origin.  It also contains the following Chinese boy's name within it:

Li: strength).

2) Wendell (It is of Old German origin, and its meaning is "wanderer".  However, it also contains the following Chinese boy's name within it:

Wen: cultured, or ornamental).

FOR A GIRL:

1) Antje (This is of Hebrew origin, and its meaning is "grace". It is also  a German variant of Ann.  Moreover, it sounds similar to these Chinese girl's names:

An: peace

Jin: golden

Genji: gold).

2) Lenna (This is of Old German origin, and its meaning is "lion's strength".  It also sounds somewhat similar to the following Chinese girl's names:

Lien: a lotus

Lian: a graceful willow).

You could also come up with first-and-middle-name-combinations like: "Liam Wendell" or "Antje Lenna" or "Antje Lien," etc.

Hope this helps!

*****EDIT:  I see you've added something new about "Wendell."  In that case, you might try this for a boy's middle name...

--Bogart (This is of Old French and Old German origin, and its meaning is "bow strength; orchard". The name is also used in Old Dutch with the meaning "apple garden".  Moreover, it contains the following Chinese boy's name within it:

Bo: precious). *****

Answer 2

We had the same problem!

Go with a famous person's (e.g. actor / actress) first name; a person who is revered and liked on three continents. As a middle name take the mother's family name as a polite gesture.

Answer 3

girl: Daisy, Stella

boy: Daren, Shane

Maybe you could combine a Germanic first name with a Chinese middle name or vice versa such as:

for a girl:

Adelina Sun or Adelina Jun

Erika Sun

for a boy:

Carl Li
