Hi Nadeen,

Cristina = kè lǐ si dì nà

Nadeen = ná dīng

As for the rest of the names, could you please give me some instructions on how to pronounce them? Otherwise I can’t translate.

Also as for names, I would suggest you to keep them in English, we used to translate all the English names into Chinese, but none of them make sense in Chinese and they sounds very strange.

Benny
