大家好,
在大家的祝福,支持和幫助下,愛女「Thea / 暖暖」順利出生,母女平安。
「暖暖」是多年前就和妮妮定下來的名字,戀愛時我們就想,將來若得男兒取名「飽飽」,若得女兒取名「暖暖」,很幸運,在不惑之年我們兒女雙全,有了一對「吃飽穿暖」的小淘氣。
「暖暖」疊字的組合和哥哥對齊,聽起來簡單,溫馨,可愛,獨特。我們寄予第一個暖字,是祝福有能力溫暖自己,獨立思考,勇敢遠行;第二個暖字,是期待能溫暖身邊的人,照亮這個糟糕的世界。這個名字和哥哥「飽飽」的名字一樣,有一種安全,有溫度的意境。我們也將和對待「飽飽」一樣,時刻提醒自己,要因材施教,不揠苗助長,讓她的內心保持乾淨和快樂。
「Thea」選為英文名的拼寫,來源於古希臘,光之女神的名字,我們取了光明和溫暖的寓意,與中文名相匹配。同時 Thea 和 Deer (小鹿)諧音,為其增添了可愛又富於靈氣的情調。
小女兒出生於一個瘋狂的時代,瘟疫餘波未盡,戰火紛飛,這個星球上的政治格局急劇變化,AI 革命席捲全球堪比工業革命,人類的命運再次走到了十字路口。我們很難再說未來可期,因為未來尚隱匿於迷霧。我們這一代是失敗的,我們的父輩祖輩也難辭其咎,我們未能留給後輩一個安寧,充滿希望的世界。這也將是女兒一生即將面對的坎坷,這一路上注定荊棘。我們希望這對哥哥妹妹,在冒險的路上保持樂觀好奇,攜手進退,守望相助。我們也希望他們旅程中知禮節,知榮辱,手有餘香。

Hello,
With everyone’s blessings, support, and help, our beloved daughter “Thea/Nuan Nuan” was born safely and healthily.
“Nuan Nuan” is a name that my partner and I decided on many years ago. When we were dating, we thought that if we had a son, we would name him “Bao Bao,” and if we had a daughter, we would name her “Nuan Nuan.” We are very fortunate that we now have both children - a mischievous pair who are well-fed and warmly clothed.
The combination of the repeating character “Nuan” in “Nuan Nuan” and “Bao Bao” sounds simple, warm, cute, and unique. The first “Nuan” represents our hope that she will be capable of warming herself up, thinking independently, and bravely exploring the world. The second “Nuan” represents our expectation that she will be able to warm those around her and illuminate this chaotic world. Like her brother’s name “Bao Bao,” the name “Nuan Nuan” also conveys a sense of safety and warmth. We will continue to remind ourselves to teach her according to her abilities, not to overindulge her, and to keep her heart clean and happy.
“Thea” is the English spelling of her name which has its origins in ancient Greece, meaning “goddess of light”. We chose this name for its connotations of brightness and warmth, which aligns with the meaning behind her Chinese name. Additionally, “Thea” and “Deer” have similar sounding pronunciations, adding an adorable and spirited element to her name.
Our little daughter was born in a crazy era. The pandemic has not yet subsided, wars are ongoing, the global political landscape is rapidly changing, and the AI revolution rivals the industrial revolution. Human destiny has once again reached a crossroads. It is difficult to say that the future is bright because it is still shrouded in mist. Our generation has failed, and our parents and ancestors cannot escape blame. We were unable to leave a peaceful and hopeful world for future generations. This will also be the hardship that our daughter will face in her life. The road ahead is destined to be full of thorns. We hope that this brother and sister pair will remain optimistic and curious on their adventurous journey, helping each other along the way. We also hope that they will learn manners and honor and leave a positive impact wherever they go.
Leask, Xiaoni, with love and care.
