This article is about Indonesian-sounding names adopted by Indonesian Chinese. Please don't confuse it with Malaysian-sounding names adopted by Malaysian Chinese. If you want to make such article, please make a new one instead of editing this article.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.216.111.190 (talkcontribs)

Widjaja edit

Can someone tell me what Widjaja is in Chinese? -- Миборовский 06:24, 19 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps it's derived from Ui/Oei. There's also an Indian name with similar pronunciation: Vijay. — LazyEditor (talk) 09:36, 22 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
Oops, it's already mentioned in the article as "Wijaya". — LazyEditor (talk) 09:46, 22 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Move to Naming practises of Indonesian Chinese? edit

Guess this might sound more encyclopedic. Also, the page doesn't just discuss Indonesian-sounding names, but also Chinese names. Please shout if you disagree or have better suggestions. cab 09:05, 17 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Good idea! I agree that it's a better name. Julius.kusuma 12:19, 18 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Well, anyway, someone moved the article cut and paste style to Indonesian-sounding names adopted by Chinese Indonesians. I placed a fix request. I think if it should be moved again the title should be Naming practices of Chinese Indonesian. Also, the redirect link on the original the original page was changed to Haji Mohammad Suharto. I think it was some sort of vandalism disguised in a fix.[1] This is something that could watch an eye on. Feureau 05:07, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Unreferenced? edit

I thought that the link below provides enough bases of this article. 69.149.154.35 18:50, 27 December 2006 (UTC)Reply


up to date citation needed for statement that most Chinese Indonesians a)no longer cared about their Chinese names and b) did not re-adopt Chinese names after 2000

Sanjaya? edit

What is Sanjaya in Chinese/Hokkien? Thanks! --134.155.149.142 (talk) 18:54, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

"Wu" confusion? edit

Are 吳, 武, and 烏 really all pronounced the same in the Hokkien spoken in Indonesia? They're the same in Mandarin if you disregard the tone (Wu), but at least in Taiwanese Southern Min they're pronounced Goh/Ngoh, Boo, and Oh, respectively, so I'm a little suspicious. If they're not, they should not be lumped together in the table. --ian (talk) 22:18, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

This is an article, not a list... edit

This should be split from the article into a separate list. Articles are meant to be comprised of prose, not lists without defined limit. I will make this change soon. Any comments? --Merbabu (talk) 09:52, 3 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

#Colonial_era_to_1965 edit

Chen (陳) is Tan, Huang (黃) is Oei or Oey, Wu (吳) is Go

Why is Mandarin Pinyin being compared to Hokkien-in-Dutch-spelling? What's the point? —suzukaze (tc) 05:25, 20 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
