What is your name?

Dear Yasmin,
It is a wonderful day today! You are no longer just baby or 529, you were named today!
Daddy has chosen 陳映彤 Chan Ying Tung, Yasmin as your name. Ying means a projection, a nice reflection, usually used to describe a beautiful shimmering lights. Tung is the brightest red color, like a mountain full of red maple leaves. Daddy love the flower jasmine, for its pureness and delicate sweet fragrance and had wanted to call you Jasmine. Mommy wanted a more exotic name, so Daddy found that the word Jasmine has a Persian root, and it can also be called Yasmin. Both mommy and daddy liked the sound, so you are Yasmin.

You are the first of the 4th generation for Daddy's and Mommy's family, so you will become a big sister to your cousins. When you are bigger, Daddy will bring you back to Hong Kong to visit your great grand-parents. All 4 of them are now in their 90s, and they are still very healthy. They were so excited learning of your birth. You have 11 grand uncles and aunties from Daddy's family, and 14 grand uncles and aunties from Mommy's side.

It was a very complicated process chosing your name, it must not clash with any of the the earlier generations from the Chan's side.
