CNBC AI News – August 16 – A rather unique baby name is making waves in China. According to domestic reports, parents in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, have christened their daughter “Wu Xuelisha Barui” (武雪丽莎芭蕊), sparking considerable online buzz.
Initially, many netizens suspected a prank or photoshopped image. However, the child’s parents have confirmed the name’s authenticity, setting social media abuzz.
According to Ms. Wu, she is Chinese, and her husband is Israeli. Their daughter takes the maternal surname, “Wu.” “Xueli” (雪丽), meaning “my gift,” was chosen by the husband. “Barui” (莎芭蕊) is a transliteration of the husband’s surname. The three grass radicals (艹) within the Chinese characters were deliberately selected due to the Year of the Snake.
Ms. Wu stated that they consulted with the local police station before registering the name and confirmed that a six-character name could be legally recorded. The couple are reportedly very fond of the name and are taking the online discussion in stride. Records indicate that a female under the age of 20 does indeed carry the name.
Several online commenters expressed concern about the child’s future, with one writing, “The parents are happy now, but the child will likely face difficulties when she starts school.” This unusual name highlights the growing trend of cross-cultural influence on personal identity and branding, raising questions about the impact of complex names in increasingly interconnected global societies.
