Why it reads this way
冰贤 (Bīng Xián) is an editorial Chinese given name. 冰 means ice; ice-cold. 贤 means virtuous, worthy, good; able. The feel is pure, lucid, noble, leaning female. It's a literary two-character given name, so use it as a starting point and check the full name with a Chinese speaker.
Sound
The pinyin is Bīng Xián. Say it slowly, then at normal speed. If a tone feels difficult, practice the syllable alone before putting the full name together. A Chinese speaker will usually understand an imperfect tone in context, but the closer you get, the more natural the name feels.
How to introduce it
“My Chinese name is 冰贤. 冰 — ice; ice-cold; 贤 — virtuous, worthy, good; able.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李冰贤 (Lǐ Bīng Xián), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
