    Default For those interested MrFixIt himself :D

    Here is a photo of myself pre mousetache removal. I look much younger now

    In this photo I'm working with something less than dressed timber. Building a new picket fence on a property being renovated.

    Peter,
    It is a typical question. When I first arrived here I thought its probably easier if I had an English name. Wouldn’t it be hard for people to call me “Siu Fei” or “Sorry what is your name again?” every time? I don’t have a clue why I chose “Scott”.

    I actually regret it now. Maybe I should have kept my Chinese name. Well, it is too late now.

    Cheers

    Siu Fei

    Maybe, but that would depend on how difficult your Chinese name was to remember/pronounce.
    Wouldn?t it be hard for people to call me ?Siu Fei?
    I don't think so (IMHO)
    or ?Sorry what is your name again?? every time?
    Well that can happen to anyone
    I don?t have a clue why I chose ?Scott?.
    Well it's as good as any other.

    It's not too late! You can change if you want to. Obviously in this forum it is simple, however in your "real" life there may be some difficulties.

    Judging by the content of your message you have an excellent grasp of the English language - do I assume you have been in Australia for quite some time now?
    Siu Fei
    SEE! You can use your Chinese name

    If you have any interest in Numerology, I would suggest you approach a numerologist and see what effect the name change has. It could very well be that the name Scott offers some benefits.

    I wrote a program for a numerologist, if you email me your date and time of birth details, and FULL birth name in a private message, I can create a numerology report and email it to you. I would need an email address to send the report, as it will most likely exceed the message capacity of this board and is not really appropriate here anyway.

    We have a few people from Shanghai who come here for work, as most of our finance and it support is handled there or in India now. Most of them also choose an 'english' name when they come over. However the Indian do not choose to do this, and with some of their names I sometimes wish they would
