English names and Chinese names are quite different in some 1 ways, but it's not hard for us to know． Unlike Chinese, most English people have 2 names． One is their family name, both of the other names are given names． Their family name is 3 the given name． They use Mr, Mrs or Miss with the 4 name, but they never use 5 with the first name． For example, we can 6 a man named James Allan Green Mr Green, _ 7 we can't call him Mr James or Mr Allan． People usually use Jim 8_ James． Jim is short for James because it's 9 to remember．
But Chinese names are the opposite． A girl with the name Han Limei 10 her family name Han first． Of course, she can be called Ah Mei for short in China if you wish．
