People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some other
famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary, or that have special
sound. They chose the "new name" for themselves instead of the name their parents gave them when they
were born.
Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country and
want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he
moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his family and Chinese
friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their new country.
