Why it reads this way

儒熙 (Rú Xī) is an editorial Chinese given name. 儒 means Confucian scholar. 熙 means bright, splendid, glorious. The feel is scholarly, bright, cultivated, leaning male. 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 Rú Xī. 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 儒熙. 儒 — Confucian scholar; 熙 — bright, splendid, glorious.”

A common full-name pattern would be 李儒熙 (Lǐ Rú Xī), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
