Name differences between English and Chinese speaking countries. Culture Understanding Names 　　People in English speaking countries put given name before family name. But we Chinese always put family name before given name. Family names are so important to us because they tell who our ancestors (祖先) are and where we are from. However, the ways of addressing (称呼) people are the same in English and in Chinese. We can address people by their full names. For example, Yuan Longping and Winston Churchill. In formal (正式的) situations, we usually use Mr, Mrs or Ms before a family name. For example, Mr Yuan and Mr Churchill. And between close friends, we can use given names. For example, Longping and Winston. 　　As for (至于) naming children, in English speaking countries children may be named after (用……命名) their parents or grandparents. And some parents name their children after famous people. In China, however, you can hardly (几乎不) find anyone having the same given name as their parents or grandparents. And few Chinese people name their children after famous people.
