Character by character
Why it works
于飞 (Yú Fēi) is a classical Chinese given name. 于 means in, on, at; go to; surname; 飞 means fly; go quickly; dart; high. It comes from Shijing · Bei Feng · Yan Yan (詩經·邶風·燕燕), where the text reads “燕燕于飛,差池其羽” — Swallows fly. The name is airy and open, with a clear image of birds in motion. It is a literary name rather than a common modern choice; check the full name aloud with your surname.
Sound
The pinyin is Yú Fēi. 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 于飞. 于 — in, on, at; go to; surname; 飞 — fly; go quickly; dart; high.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李于飞 (Lǐ Yú Fēi), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
