For example:
T: Hi, nice to meet you. I’m Lucy. What’s your name?
S1: My name is Li Lei. (Turn back to the second student and say, “My name is Li Lei. What’s your name?”)
S2: My name is Liu Yu. (Turn back to the third student and say, “My name is Liu Yu. His name is Li Lei. What’s your name?”)
S3: ……
Please work in groups of four to play the Name Game together. Then I’ll ask a group of four to play the Name Game in front of the class.
Closing down by talking about English vs. Chinese names
Unlike Chinese names, English names are listed with the given name first and the family name or surname second. Many people have two given names, e.g. Sarah Ann Smith. The second name is called the middle name and has no real significance，unlike the Chinese second name which indicates a child's generation. English family names are inherited from the father, and a woman's family name changes to the family name of her husband when she marries. Chinese women do not necessarily take their husband's family name when they marry. Many English names have an old meaning, but the meaning is not usually a consideration when choosing a name, the way the name sounds is more important. In Chinese culture, naming a child often takes five principles into consideration: the name should reflect wealth or well-being. It must sound pleasant when spoken, reflect favorable mathematical calculations, be harmonious with regard to yin and yang, and possess one of the five elements of metal, water, wood, fire, and air.
