Why it reads this way
昌寿 (Chāng Shòu) is an editorial Chinese given name. 昌 means light of sun; good, proper. 寿 means old age, long life; lifespan. The feel is blessed, vital, lasting, leaning neutral. It's a curated combination rather than a classical citation, so use it as a starting point and check the full name with a Chinese speaker.
Sound
The pinyin is Chāng Shòu. 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 昌寿. 昌 — light of sun; good, proper; 寿 — old age, long life; lifespan.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李昌寿 (Lǐ Chāng Shòu), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
