Character by character
Why it works
韪 right; proper; propriety; 良 good, virtuous, respectable. A given name a foreign resident of China actually took.
Why it reads this way
韪良 (Wěi Liáng) is an editorial Chinese given name. 韪 means right; proper; propriety. 良 means good, virtuous, respectable. The feel is balanced, 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.
Documented use
丁韪良（W.A.P. Martin），传教士，名字由 自取 所取。Martin音译
This is one of the real Chinese names collected in our corpus of foreign residents' names; we list it because somebody actually uses it, not because it ranks in any popularity table.
Sound
The pinyin is Wěi Liáng. 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 韪良. 韪 — right; proper; propriety; 良 — good, virtuous, respectable.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李韪良 (Lǐ Wěi Liáng), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
