"Happle" is not an English name. Unfortunately in English, we are much more strict about the names which we can choose for children - I can immediately see whether something is a name or not! Some suggestions: Gabrielle is from the Hebrew meaning "heroine of god". (this is definitely the most common of the names I've listed) Avalon is a rare Celtic name meaning "island of apples". Felicia is a Latin name meaning "happy one", as does its English counterpart, Felicity. Joy is an English name meaning "happiness". Congratulations on your daughter! :)

I would advise against the name simply because it sounds strange, but not foreign. It is not a name I have ever heard, but it does not sound exotic either. It also does not sound female or male, simply neutral. So it sounds a bit mundane.

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow and husband Chris Martin named their daughter Apple Martin.

I think you can give a girl whatever name you want-- including ones that you make up-- like Happle. As long as the name does not have bad connotations it should work all right. To me, the name sounds humorous and light (not serious). Both of those are good qualities.You live in China, so most people hearing the name are not going to be judging it from an English-speaker viewpoint anyway. I expect foreign people-- especially Chinese to have English names that are not what we consider mainstream. I realize that the English name is not her main name anyway. As long as you like it it should work. Just realize that every time she says it to an English speaker they will look a little puzzled and then ask her to spell it or explain it. I have a name like that myself that most people have never heard of. You get used to it. If you call her Happy or Apple they won't ask about it. There are people here in the USA that have given their kids names like that. That type of name was quite popular for awhile in the hippie culture.
