Character by character
Why it works
Clear and graceful; a classical image of brightness and elegance.
Sound
The pinyin is Qīng Yáng. 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 清扬. 清 — clear, pure; 扬 — to raise, to spread.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李清扬 (Lǐ Qīng Yáng), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
