This is actually slightly old news, but my Mom managed to give Alex a Chinese name the last time I went back and visited her, and after some fighting with the computer and figuring out how to do the character using pinyin and whatnot fonts that comes with OSX, here it is, in a jpeg form.




It is pronounced Lei2 An2 Zhou1 in pinyin, and a crude translation would be the following: The first character, his surname (or last name) would be "Thunder", the second means "peaceful, tranquil, quiet", and the last character means "profound, brilliant, lofty."

YAY!
