Ha anaconda. Reminds me of my friend Paola when talking of her friend's
drag persona:
"I am Ana, Ana Conda!"
Interestingly i've not come across strange "american" names chosen by
chinese students who study at my university. Although we do have:
Hung-Chang Chen
Laura Chen
Leanne Chen
Pi-chu Chen
Kiet luong
Molika Sang
Hung Hoang (he goes by HH)
Jenny Hoang
Christopher Chang
Nicholas Chang
Sooo, most of them either kept their original names, were americanized, or
simply picked sensible "american" names :).
