Tips

culture
奥森 (Àosēn) most often points to Orson Welles (奥森·威尔斯, 1915–1985), the American director-actor behind 《公民凯恩》 (Citizen Kane, 1941) — routinely listed among the greatest films ever made — and the 1938 War of the Worlds radio panic. The name also covers science-fiction author Orson Scott Card (奥森·斯科特·卡德), author of 《游戏》 (Ender's Game). captures 'Or-' (also seen in 奥斯卡 Oscar, 奥黛丽 Audrey), closes the '-son'.
memory
奥森 doubles as the colloquial Beijing nickname for 奥林匹克森林公园 (Olympic Forest Park) — context (a person vs. a place in Beijing) tells you which.
