Character by character
Why it works
桃花 (Táo Huā) is a classical Chinese given name. 桃 means peach; marriage; surname; 花 means flower; blossoms. It comes from Song Ci Sanbaishou (宋詞三百首) / Three Hundred Song Ci, where the text reads “釵頭鳳·紅酥手：桃花落” — The peach blossoms fall. It is warm and familiar. It is a common flower name; the poem gives it a bittersweet tone. It is a literary name rather than a common modern choice; check the full name aloud with your surname.
Sound
The pinyin is Táo Huā. 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 桃花. 桃 — peach; marriage; surname; 花 — flower; blossoms.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李桃花 (Lǐ Táo Huā), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
