Hello Xinrui!
I have helped many of my Chinese students to find English names. If you want a name based on the pronunciation of your Chinese name, then I suggest "Cherie". It is pronounced: ʃeɪˈri. (It also has a good meaning. It means "beloved" or "dear".) This name actually comes from French, but many "English" names come from other cultures and languages. You can hear it pronounced here: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/cherie
If you want more of a pure English name, then you can use Sherry. (It is the English form of the same name.) But, as a native English speaker, I think Cherie sounds more special and beautiful. (And I think it sounds closer to your Chinese name.) You can visit here to hear the difference: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sherry
But it is your choice. In fact, if you want to choose your name by yourself, I recommend the following website: http://www.thinkbabynames.com/
Good luck! I hope you can find a good English name you like!
All the best,
-Steve

Hi my dear friend,
I don't know why you want to change your name. I thinks you can use your name all over the world and you can be happy with that. It was my opinion but you can do what you want.
Have good time

Chen,
I don't know how your last name sounds, but a good first name might be "Jen". That is usually a shortened form of the name, "Jennifer". (We call it a nickname.) Since, it will be a nickname for you, I think it would be perfectly acceptable.
