Native Chinese Name studio

A Chinese name a native would actually use.

An ID-card name is a surname from the Hundred Family Surnames plus one or two given-name characters a classmate could actually use. Native Name is that name as a name-card PDF and a share PNG, in 1–3 days. The ~200K Douyin / Xiaohongshu following is the voting panel for Audience vote ($199) — a reachable audience, not a ballot count.

Native Name

$79

One 2–3 character Chinese name (surname + given name). One given-name revision if the first impression snags. A name-card PDF and a share PNG after 1–3 days of studio work.

You receive

  • Name card PDF (1 page): the Chinese name large, pinyin with tones, 1–2 sentence structure note (why this is an ID-card name, not transliteration).
  • Share image PNG: the same Chinese name, for WeChat / Instagram / a business-card mock.

Audience vote

$199

Native Name files, plus 2–3 candidate names posted to a Chinese audience on Douyin / Xiaohongshu. The extra is the vote, not a longer essay. A sample votes from a ~200K reachable pool — not 200,000 ballots.

You receive

  • Everything in Native Name (name card PDF + share PNG).
  • Vote brief: 2–3 candidate Chinese names posted to that audience, when a vote runs.
  • Audience-vote report PDF — it does not exist yet. Live panel n = 0. When a vote runs, the PDF will show the five NFIP questions with actual counts / split, not a collapsed score.
  • The recommended Chinese name on the name card after the tally.

First vote has not run (n = 0). Joining this waitlist does not buy a poll, and we will not email a fake tally. ~200K is the reachable Douyin / Xiaohongshu audience, not 200,000 ballots. $199 is Pilot until that vote exists.

Why this page exists

People who want an ID-card name should land on a studio intake. People who already have characters should land on a checker. Splitting this studio from the checker keeps those intents from contaminating each other.

“Native” here means a real Chinese surname in first position, a given name of one or two characters people actually use, and a first impression that does not require a footnote. Read the Native First-Impression Protocol if you want the rubric in writing. Compare Xinhua transliteration vs surname + given name if you were handed a news-wire spelling.
