Tips

usage
Phonetic transliteration: 维 (Wi-/Vi-) + 利 (-lly/-li). 维 "to maintain" is a standard syllable for the wi-/vi- sound (维多利亚 Victoria, 维京 Viking). For the more famous American "Willy" (e.g. Death of a Salesman's Willy Loman) Chinese normally uses 威利 - 维利 leans more toward German/European bearers.
