Chi Seng Cheong
Victory expresses success, right and power. All parents want
their children to be winners. My name is Chi Seng. It means children and
victory in Chinese. I was born on a stormy day. My parents beat the monster to
the hospital to get me out, so it was my parents’ victory. They chose my name to commemorate the day.
According to Chinese tradition, boys
are better than girls. Chinese people think boys can take responsibility for
the whole family. They can be the leader. Therefore, in my generation every
single male’s name starts by Chi in my family, since Chi means children in
Chinese, and it reminds us that we cannot forget family. Also, Chinese people
have their special roles to decide names. They think it should be appropriate according to the time
of birth counting accurately to the hour that can change people’s destiny.
My name comes from my parents and
from Chinese tradition. It is unique, and includes many meanings for me. I
don’t want to change my name because it was a gift from my parents. I want to
accept the destiny if it is real. My name encourages me to do better and
better. It will be with me my whole life.
Chi Seng, my mom had a same idea about same first letter for all of her kids, so i like that all of your siblings have the same start like you.
