| 6月7月以来，很多参加过口语考试的同学发邮件给我，报告第一部分中考官问到名字的话题，这个话题早就存在，可能是考生在考前一看Names就觉得挺简单，没有过多留意。其实要想说好这个话题，还是需要积攒一些口语素材的。
1. Does your name have any special meaning?
Yes, I was named after my grandmother. (named after) 以...命名，起名。
My name is Suntao, Tao literally means billows or large waves. 我叫孙涛，涛字面意思是波涛，海浪。
My parents named me Wangdong, something to do with the "solar term", the beginning of winter. 我父母给我起名王冬，和24节气有关，立冬。
No it doesn't. To me it's just a couple of sounds put together. 没特别的意义，对于我来说，这就是几个音拼凑在一起。
My name is NOS, was picked by my dad - Micheal Yu, it represents... 俺叫新东方，俺爹俞敏洪给我起的，它代表……
I was named Eve. I don't like it. I can't stand it for religious reasons. I don't like being named after the woman who picked the apple in the Garden of Eden. The only thing I like about it is that it's short and easy to pronounce and spell. 我叫Eve，我讨厌这个名字，我不能忍受的是宗教的原因。我不喜欢以一个在伊甸园里摘下苹果的女人而起名。唯一让我喜欢的一点就是，不长，而且容易发音，拼写。
2. Do you like your name?
Yes, I got my name from my great grandmother, She past away the very same time i was born. So I was Named Elizabeth after her. Kinda bitter sweet huh? kinda=kind of
It's ok, its Jennifer. Wish i had a more exciting name though.
I love my name and I dont think I would change it because its a name my parents picked out for me and im proud to have it.
I'm quite happy with my name now. I think it's pretty, fairly unique, and sort of formal (in a good way).
For the longest time, I hated my name. I wanted to change it, but I never knew how to go about doing it. Now, I am 30 and I still hate my name, but I do not want to go through the trouble of actually doing it.
