Dear bbb,
One quick question to ask: Can I put my English name which is not my official name on my personal statement in the parenthesis beside my real name? My real Chinese name is pretty hard to remember and to pronounce. If it is OK, and everyone begins to call my English name, will they get confused and forget my real name which may cause problem in my match?
Thanks for your input.

I had the same doubt too. My preferred and easier-to-pronounce name is a part of my complete first name. Will it complicate things too much, like mistaken identities etc during the match, and esp in IV season?
Thanks.
