Character by character
Why it works
柔桑 (Róu Sāng) is a classical Chinese given name. 柔 means soft; gentle, pliant; 桑 means mulberry tree; surname. It comes from Song Ci Sanbaishou (宋詞三百首) / Three Hundred Song Ci, where the text reads “鷓鴣天·陌上柔桑破嫩芽：陌上柔桑破嫩芽” — On the path, the soft mulberry breaks into new buds. It is rural and gentle. It is a literary name rather than a common modern choice; check the full name aloud with your surname.
Sound
The pinyin is Róu Sāng. 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 柔桑. 柔 — soft; gentle, pliant; 桑 — mulberry tree; surname.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李柔桑 (Lǐ Róu Sāng), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
