Hi everyone! I've recently started to learn Chinese and I've realised I need a Chinese name to go by. I've researched some common names and surnames and picked two options:

1. 馮若曦 (Féng Ruòxī)
2. 馮 映晴 (Féng Yìngqíng)

I'm a woman and I picked these based on the meaning of the characters, but I'm not sure how it would sound to a Chinese speaker. I wanted a name that reflected something like "warmth" / "clear skies" / "journeying" (that's the vibe I was going for) + I really like the way the surname Féng (馮) sounds phonetically, as well.

My original names' meanings are: "born on Christmas Day" (first name, Latin origin), "someone who lives near a river, a body of water" (last name, Dutch origin). Should I transfer those meanings to my Chinese name, as well?

I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!

Update: Wow, thank you all so much!! I didn't even know just HOW MUCH I didn't know about nuclear reactors! What a fascinating read these comments have been. Will watch/read everything you've recommended, educate myself + come up with a new story plot, I guess😅

So to preface this, I'm a writer! I'm currently writing a short story series in the horror/crime genre, and I'm fascinated by the concept of nuclear energy, although I am absolutely illiterate in the matter.

I had an idea for a case in which nuclear power plants across the country are being massively shut down due to there being a serial killer who sticks people into reactors. Say, the killer is a nuclear power station worker and has access to the reactor itself. I've read some posts here on Reddit that the person would become broth, basically, if they were to get into a reactor. So my questions are:

- Mechanically speaking, is it possible to stick a person into a reactor? And if yes, then into which component of the reactor?

- Would it be possible to stick living people in there, or would the killer use the reactor as a way to dispose of the bodies instead? Meaning would they have to be cut into pieces to fit in there?

- How would you know that it's a body that's causing the disruptions at the plant? Would there be like a signal like "Foreign Object Detected"? Or would the reactor shut down entirely?

- Would their DNA still be preserved, or would it melt altogether? On a sidenote, is it possible to melt DNA?

Asking out of scientific curiosity + it'd be great if my story were at least partially plausible (it is horror, after all). Thanks in advance!
