Question

Answer

對漢語母語人士而言
純粹聲音的翻譯並無特別的意義
coca cola 被譽為傳神的 音譯 
是因為它 將意義巧妙的融合在聲音當中

Shawn (Sean) 音為 / ˈʃɔːn / 義為 "God is gracious"
有讚頌神的寬大與至高無上之義
因此綜合音義 譯為 尚 或 上
 
而 Morris 義為 "son of More"
在此 取第一音節 作為 万 (mo4) 加上 俟 (qi2) 成為 万俟
万俟 是 古老的中文複姓
(俟 又讀作 si4 是等待 之義 也呼應 morri-S 之音)

因此 我譯 Shawn Morris 為 "万俟上" 或 "万俟尚"

万俟姓
