Will 'Sham"be used as a name in western English-speaking countries? I spot somebody used this word "Sham" as his name. Later I looked it up in the dictionary and found out that it means "a fake person/ thing, or fraud feelings". In Chinese we will never used such words to name a person unless someone uses it as a netname often out of insincerity. Is it possible that in English-speaking countries people use it to give a name in everyday life?
