Tips
culture
Japanese names entering Chinese keep their kanji and are read in Mandarin (kanji-as-Chinese, not phonetic). 戸田 'Toda' = 户田 'Hùtián' in Chinese. Famous bearers: actress Toda Erika 戸田恵梨香 (Code Blue, Death Note) and figure skater Toda Daisuke.
usage
If you say 户田 in Japanese-influenced contexts, listeners assume Japanese person/place; if you say it as ordinary Mandarin words it parses as 'household + field' — but no major Chinese place uses this combination.
