Hello, everyone! My Chinese name is Chen Wan Rong, which includes various meanings. My father named me Wan Rong because he wanted his daughter to have a beautiful face.Therefore ,"Wan"(婉) <stands for> the meaning of/<means> "beautiful", <and>/<while> "rong"(容) represents "face". Name is a study in China for it will <follow>/<go with> you forever. I am a university student who come from Shaoguan University, which is not a bad university in China. My major is teaching Chinese as a foreign language. There are a lot of religions(?reasons?) that I chose it as my major. Above all, I have a classical name and my father likes literature too. There is no doubt that I was influenced by my father. When I was a little girl, he liked telling me a lot of ancient Chinese fairy tales and heroic stories.

1. "includes various meanings" is grammatically correct. However, you only gave one meaning, so I suppose you mean "is very meaningful".
2. 很难明白意思。Do you mean that parents put a lot of time and effort into deciding a name for their children?
3. I think that in Chinese, "a not bad ~" (不错的~) means "a good ~" (好的~). But in English, it means "a so-so ~" (不太错的~). So please be careful about that.
4. "heroic stories" is grammatically correct. But it has the nuance of the story being a true to life story with someone doing something very brave. I think "stories about (Chinese?) heroes" is more natural.
5. Maybe you mean "classics"?
