Question

How do I write my boyfriend's name in Mandarin? His name is Tad. Thanks so much!?

Answer 1

Hmm.. not easy to answer because there's no similar syllable for 'Tad' in Chinese. You can choose one of the followings:

特 (pronounced 'TE'), literally means 'special'

塔德 (pronounced 'TA DE') No particular meanings, just a similar syllable.

Answer 2

泰德（tai de）

Answer 3

you know there no direct translation for name or that kind of thing in mandarin

it's what parents choose for their kids and it usually has a special meaning
