Should we stick with Asian names for my kids?

I mean we're planning on to, or should we give them English names? I mean they're probably going to live only in South Korea (or Japan). It'd only make sense to give them an English name if they're part American.

I don’t even know exactly what would be considered an asian name, something only asian can pronounce?
I’m asian with an American name only because I’m adopted by Americans.

@ImRileyTheDog names with origin in a asian country

@Shine I still don’t even know what an asian name would be. Lee is a common last name but I’m lost for first names. Asian names are typically hard to pronounce.

@ImRileyTheDog They really aren't hard to pronounce.

@Poet123 Im asian I can’t pronounce them, well I don’t even know many either.

@Shine Well I’m not you

@ImRileyTheDog you are American, that may be why you find it difficult to pronounce Asian names.

@Shine I’m literally not American, I am Americanized.

@ImRileyTheDog But you are an American citizen are you not? Then you’re American.
ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F
@Poet123 I am a citizen. So I’m legally American but I don’t consider myself American like that. Physically I’m asian by personality wise I guess I’m American.🤷

@ImRileyTheDog you’re stil American. I know one Korean friend who doesn’t have any American in him but acts like a stereotypical American lol
ImRileyTheDog · 22-25, F
@Poet123 Whatever sure, I’m American.
