What do you guys think of the name Xin?

Question

Pronounced "Shin" or something.

A good name?

Does anyone know what it means?

Thanks!

Answer 1

ehh. there are better names.

Answer 2

Xin Windoo

Answer 3

I know the Chinese name Xing, which means "Star", but I've never heard of Xin before... it could be an adaptation.

Answer 4

I don't like it and I would pronounce it Zin.

Answer 5

It's cute.  However, if I saw it written down, I would worry about pronouncing it correctly. You would not want to have a first impression of you being confusion.  With a verbal introduction, if I heard your name as "shin" I would first think of the part of the leg between the knee and ankle known as your shin.  ??? do you want a name like that, regardless of what it "means" in another language.  You have to think about what it sounds like in YOUR language.  

Answer 6
