Napoleon lives!

Appearantly Chinese people can chose their own english name. At some point in their life they have to decide which english name they want to use because of the chinese names are not pronouncable for non chinese speakers. Most of them chose quite common names like natalie, stefanie or curtis. Some, however, really like to read history books or watch movies, and base their name on one of their 'heroes'. This causes some hilarious situations (for us, the foreigners)

What we have so far is:
- Windows
- Rain
- Ring
- Beyonce
- Cherry
- Amigo
- Apple
- Prudence
- Phoebe, and the best one;
- Napoleon

That's right, Napoleon lives! I'm sure that this list will grow in the future...

Thank you bye bye
