We had fried fish with light soy sauce. Home-made tofu with seafood and we had wild fern too! Stir-fried wild fern ( paku pakis in Malay ) with garlic.
I personally know few Chinese friends, both husband and wife can't utter a word of English, neither of them is Christian and yet they give their kids English/Christian names!!
Molly, I have a Celtic name courtesy from my mom, much to my horror!
She was probably fixated on everything Celtic when I was born??
Anyway, when I was growing up, I began to take pride in my so-called English/Christian name coz not many people back then had it in their birth certificate.
However, when I was working in Singapore in the mid 90's, I started using more my Chinese name which is 'Yuet Ching' and was secretly feeling amused when the Westerners can't pronounced them! And when they asked for my Chinese surname, I'd say, "Oh no! Don't even go near there!!" They'd probably end up snorting like a bull trying to pronounce it.
When I have kids of my own, I make sure I give them NO English/Christian names! They have both Indian and Chinese names combined.
