There are so many names for the characters in the book of the story of the stone. Different names may have different connotations to convey the owners’ dispositions. Compared with the English names, Chinese names are more plicated in many ways in sound, vision, form, and sense. The great translators such as Hawkes David and Yang Hsien– Yi amp。 Gladys Yang translated this great Chinese classics, The story of the stone. David applies domestication to translating the names and the Yangs applied foreignization. Both methods have their respective advantages and disadvantages when adopted in translation like that. This study tries to pare the two translated works and consider what problem from different perspectives. Keywords: names in The story of the stone。 domestication。 foreignization。 pun I. Introduction Different cultures have their own background and contents. Because of its long history, the Chinese language has bee one of the most plex and imaginative languages in the world. Our Chinese names always contain many senses such as good wishes. And also, they have some esthetic value, some of them are short but condensed, meaningful and pleasant to ears. It is hard to translate the Chinese names into English. Translating the names of The Story of the Stone has big significance for the culture munication of the Chinese and the foreign languages. Novel translators pay much emphasis on creation of their characters, so name translation is crucial to the translating of the whole work. Referring to The Dictionary of the Characters in the Book of the Story of the Stone, we can see that there are more than 1100 characters in that work. Such multitudinous amount of people with their unique names, their names embody the feature of the characters. Some names tell something about the features of the characters, and some 3 give clues of the story or reflect the society. By translating the names in the work, we get closed to the author of The Story of the Stone, and have a chance to take a glance at the profoundness of Chinese. Nowadays, scholars often focus on the using of ironies and puns in the names in The Story of the Stone. We can easily find some articles or videos which with the ironies or puns used in the names, such as Bu Guxiu, JiaoXing, DaiQuan(卜顧修 , 嬌杏 , 戴權(quán) ), and so on. By studying this, we find a lot of joys. They are just word games in some ways. But there are also some shortages in translating the names. Because of the difference of the cultures, we can find that there are untouched areas in translation. Chinese names always contain great sense with short words, so if we want to translate the meaning well, we should use sentences. But sentences cannot be a name. And also, some Chinese cannot be expressed in English, for example, “鴛 鴦 ”, was translated as “faithful goose”. In this article, we will try to discuss name translation in The Story of the Stone. As a special form of Chinese, names give us an opportunity to feel the splendid Chinese literature. Being a bridge for cultural munication, translation requires us to have a good mand of the two different cultures and languages. The Story of the Stone, as a model for classical character writing, gave us challenges in name translation. II. The Differences between the English and the Chinese Cultures Reflected in Name Translation Vocabulary, as the smallest unit in language, though may has the same meanings in different languages, usually makes different inner reflections because of different culture. And it always has the meaning of the same word is pletely not the same in different languages. Both English and Chinese have some vo
