A Chinese couple tried to name their baby "@", saying the character best represents their love for the child,
according to an official trying to whip the national language into shape. The unusual name stands out especially
in Mandarin (普通話), which has no alphabet and instead uses tens of thousands of multi-stroke (多筆畫的)
characters to represent words. "The whole world uses it to write emails, and translated into Chinese it means
'love him'", the father explained, according to the deputy chief of the State Language Commission Li Yuming.
While the @ symbol is familiar to Chinese email users, they often use the English word "at" to sound it out.
With a drawn-out "t", this sounds something like "ai ta", or "love him", to Mandarin speakers. Li says the name
is an extreme example of people's increasingly adventurous approach to Mandarin, as commercialization and the
Internet break down conventions (習(xí)俗).
Another couple tried to give their child a name that in English sounds like "King Osrina".
Li did not say if officials accepted the "＠"name. But earlier this year the government announced a ban on
names using Arabic numerals and foreign languages. Sixty million Chinese face the problem that their names
use ancient characters so uncommon that computers cannot recognize them and even fluent speakers are left
scratching their heads, said Li, according to a transcript on the government website. One of them is the former
Premier Zhu Rongji, whose name has a rare "rong" character that gives newspaper editors headaches.
