Why it reads this way

内薇 (Nèi Wēi) is an editorial Chinese given name. 内 means inside. 薇 means fern, rose. The feel is reserved, delicate, quiet, 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 Nèi Wēi. 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 内薇. 内 — inside; 薇 — fern, rose.”
