迭戈 is used as a transliteration for the male given name Diego.
Meaning: male given name (name)

How do you pronounce it?

The romanization is Diégē.

Did you know?

  • Because 迭戈 is a transliteration, the individual characters 迭 and 戈 retain their original meanings of 'to substitute' and 'halberd', which have no connection to the name Diego.
  • In a formal Chinese setting, one would rarely call a person just 迭戈 without a title, as using only the transliterated name can sound overly casual or blunt.
  • While 迭戈 is the standard transliteration, some people may choose a 'Chinese name' with specific meanings to represent themselves, rather than a sound-alike version of 'Diego'.

Examples in context

  • 迭戈又敲了一下。
    Diego knocked once more.
