哈门德 (Hāméndé): Hammond (English surname)

哈门德 (Hāméndé) transliterates the English surname 'Hammond'. 哈 'Ham', 门 'mon', 德 final '-d'. It's a rarer rendering than the now-standard 哈蒙德 (also Hāméngdé) — both are seen, with 哈门德 favored in older translations. Famous bearers: Richard Hammond from 《Top Gear》, and John Hammond, the dinosaur-park founder in 《侏罗纪公园》 (Jurassic Park).

memory

The 德 ending is the Chinese-translation default for English surnames closing in '-d' or '-rd' (Howard 霍华德, Edward 爱德华). When you see a foreign-name compound ending 德, expect that final consonant.
