A university student in the city of Yingtan in Jiangxi province took the local public security bureau to court on Friday because it rejected the use of his name - Zhao C.

Zhao was born in 1986 and registered his name as the above.

But the name was rejected recently when he applied for a second generation identity card, by the Yuehu branch of public security.

“I did not learn English well and I wished my son could learn both languages of Chinese and English, so I gave him the name. C is the first letter of the word Chinese and it sounds like xi, which means west, in Chinese,” said Zhao Zhirong, Zhao C’s father.
