hihi,
my mother has advised me to go to a geomancer to give the chinese name for my baby. I was wondering how much is it to engage this service? Any recommendations to a good geomancer?

i heard bad comment about this YOU LONG ZI at the other forum. these days he is not as good as before... maybe becoming more popular so show more attitude now, too.
what happen was 2 colleagues went to him and happen to see that the names given to these 2 persons were the same.
my cousin went there. in fact went back again cos the 1st time visit, the choices of name weren't that great...

The 1 i went was 'Long Tian Xiang'. But i dunno how much cos it's my MIL who called & paid for it. He will calculate out the strokes for the surname & names then give u a list of wat characters can be used for the baby's names. In case if u need, his contact number is 90675008 or 64523048. Address is at 166 Lentor loop #14-01 Bullion Park Tower 3

2nd one we went to hospital cos my son was still in hospital

I did my bb naming @ Huaxia Tamaobi (opp TMC) and paid S$88 for it.
Ready within 24-hrs.
Was told that the shi-fu who is doing the naming is in HK.
Will give you 5 names which the shi-fu thinks is the best. But if you don't like it, you will be given 10 2nd character and 3rd character which you can mix and match yourself.

The making of “baby hair brush” dates back to Tang Dynasty of China.
Wishes him/her fame in the future.
Usually it will be 1 whole set called "wen fang si bao".
