Fu Keen is a most wonderful name.

I had forgotten it but am happy to be reintroduced.

Congratulations

Antti,

Yes, Fu Keen. My second-year Chinese teacher in College picked it out for me. I like it a lot because “ke en” sounds a bit like “kerim” but the name is quite traditionally Chinese. The only thing is, it doesn’t sound Taiwanese at all. Someone might mistake me for a Mainlander with a name like that. Fu is also a pretty rare surname here in Taiwan. But I’m happy with my name and over the years it has become part of my identity.

傅可恩敎授, congratulations! All the best for a great job and a linguistically interesting situation.

First time I see your Chinese name, Fu Ke-en(?). Care to tell how you came up with that?
