The Standardization and the Methods of
Translating
English name into Chinese

Abstract: The situation of name translation, here we mean translating English names into Chinese, is utterly in mess nowadays. And it is badly in need of changing .Apart from that there also are a lot of complicated factors which have caused the terrible situation. However, this article will try to offer us some useful advice and methods, which will help us to reduce the complexity of translation work and save some costs of translation. Besides, after reading this paper, I hope people could pay more attention to the name translation, because it deserves. And it is very important and worthwhile to focus on the standardization of the name translation.

Key words: the name translation; standardization; mess; changing.

The introduction
As we all know, when we try to turn one language into anther one we can’t avoid the name translation. And it would throw us into confusion if we translate the names casually. Particularly, when we read different books, we can hardly know many different names just refer to the same single person, unless we are quite familiar with the stories or life of this person. But if we know this person well, there is no need for us to read those books. It’s a contradiction in terms.
The first time that I noticed this problem was when I was preparing for an exam for which need me to do a lot of reading. I found that it is very hard to find out that“仲马”and“杜马”is the same person .Besides, the similar things happened so often that to find out “赫胥黎”and “达尔文”’s relationship becomes another bug in my learning. Although those are not big things, they bring me a lot of trouble of comprehending or remembering things and waste me a lot of time. And there is a typical example for all of us. In 2008, the Name Translation Office had met a challenge they never had. A seven-people group of the Name Translation Office should translate 36000 names of foreigners, including the government officials, administrative personnel, foreign volunteers, athletes, journalists, even the names of the horses ,who had attend the Beijing’s Olympic games, within two weeks. Obviously, that was a stiff task. And all those things have inspired me to think about the topic today we talked about and pushed me to find a way to solve this problem. So here I’d like to show how I think about this point and to offer some methods for dealing with this problem. Besides, I happened to know that I’m not the only one who interested in this topic .So I’m going to quote some person’s words to improve or draw forth the things I need .But if you think this will be a theory collection, then I have to say that you are wrong .Actually this is a study which will shine your eyes. Let’s just begin from the practice investigation.
Chapter one Practice investigation
1.1 The introduction of practice investigation
Where does this problem come from? Why has this problem existed for such a long time? Here, we will do some further study which is based on social research and some small simple experiments.
Firstly, I’d like to show the design. This part will include a research and several simple experiments. Before we do these things, there are some preparations: the goals, the materials, and the analysis. And the most important thing among these is the analysis. We need analyze both the situation and the people who involved in closely. And the details are given as the following.
The goals
A. To find out whether it worthwhile to be studied;
B. To find out people’s attitude towards this problem;
C. To see if some people has some good ideals about this problem;
D. To know the situation of this problem;
E. To find a good way to solve this problem;
F. To find the difference between life and theory;
G. To make the article more scientific and complete.
The materials
A. Questionnaires;
B. Texts;
C. Some first-hand information;
D. Information from scientific magazines and books;
E. Internet help;
F. The information of volunteers.
Analysis (Omit)
This part will be presented specially together with the analysis of practice investigation result later on.
1.2Research design
1) 30 pieces of questionnaires for social activity;
2) Internet research which will give out by QQ , Blog, RENREN;
3) Choose the adoptable questions which include the open one and the close one. The question choosing requires not only to meet the content goal but also not to be boring.
4) Sample (You will see it in appendix )
1.3Experiment design
1) Time: it will be done within 45mins.
2) People: two groups, each group will consist of 8 people.
3) The same passage prepared in two different forms.
4) Make the two groups of people read the two different passages then answer the same questions below it. The result will be showed after observing and analyzing the answers given by the two groups. (The passage will be found in the appendix)
1.4 Result (It also will be found in the appendix)
1.5Analysis
According to the research and experiment, we find that every person has their own judgment. And some of them do care about name translation. There also are many factors which have effects on people’s ideas about name translation, such as education level, living area, knowledge structure, ages, work... And these are showed clearly in questionnaires.
People who live in big cities where business communication and culture exchange happen more frequently seems more interested in this research. People who are in low education degree or know little about English tend to care little about the name translation. People whose work fields have no directly relationships with English also care little about translation, let alone name translation. Besides, though some people have the conception of name translation their ideas would be limited by their knowledge structure .They know translating names casually will bring troubles, but they still refuse to change, for some reasons. And this may be one of the reasons why the mess situation of name translation can exist for such a long time.
The experiment shows us that translating names casually does have a big effect on our study and work. It wastes our energies and time both in living and work. Standardizing the name translation is definitely in need badly.
1.6The addition
Form the survey ,we also find that not every person wants the standardization of name translation even if they do know that translating names casually will bring trouble.
Then why don’t they want to change? There are many reasons, apart from the foregoing that some people have been limited by their education background. One of the points is that not everybody cares about the translating thingies .For most people, who live in material worlds, the only thing they care is the result. They don’t really care about how it works or where it comes from. They just use it and enjoy the life, like the people who drink milk but care little of how to feed a cow. Thus, we can’t ask every one to agree with the idea that to standardize the name translation. However ,there is still something should be noticed that the problem should be solved, because that no matter how other people think of milk and cows ,the farmers do need to know how to feed a cow and ensure the cow can produce good milk effectively. Besides, some people are used to being in mess they just can’t adopt themselves to accept the new things. However, things always change, even though sometimes it is painful. The earlier change, the more benefit.
Chapter two The character of English names and English names can be standardized
2.1 The construction of English names
English names always consist of forename, middle name, and surname. Surname is connected with the family or blood bend which is the common part in a person’s name .while forename is the real one that makes people different, here means, everyone has their own forename to show that they are unique so they can be distinguished by others. And the last one, middle name may be so unimportant that some people even do not have one. People seldom use it unless in some quite formal situation, such as on court or in law office.
2.2 How English people give a name.
Surname
As we mentioned before, there is a fixed part in a name, surname ,which also be called family name .This part of name always originates from forebears’ trade, nature stuffs, place names, and the nickname of ancestors which can show some characters of them or points out some relationships between father and s
