I visited Macau before. When I visited a hotel there, sometimes I asked hotel staffs. They hanged their name plates at chest, but I could see names like people in English area. Moreover, all of staffs had English names.

自然な表現

I visited Macau once. In the hotel I asked the staff why all their name badges showed English names.

1. BEFORE is usually followed by another time or event.
2a. STAFF is not countable.
2b. We usually refer to a NAME BADGE (a NAME PLATE is usually on a DESK).
2c. The PEOPLE are not LIKE ENGLISH. This refers to their NAMES.
2d. You can join all these sentences together using I ASKED THE STAFF to report your question.

I had been to Macau as well. Macau is blended with Chinese, English, Portuguese, and Malay, so their public transportation announces in different languages.

Yes. English is spoken there, so I could communicate in English. When I saw name plates, I remember something. I worked with a Chinese coworker before. She had Chinese name, but she used English name at the company. I called her English name.

1. We use ‘the’ when there is only one of something or when we are referring to a particular thing. (E.g. “I looked at the Moon. I used the Internet. The report was difficult to read on the small screen.”)
2. See 2b. in #2 above.
3. Past tense required.
4, 5, 7. You must use an article (or a word like ‘my’, ‘his’ etc) before a singular countable noun.
6. We call someone BY a name which is different to their official one.

It seems they can choose an English name. In my former English academy, our Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Taiwanese, and Vietnamese students had to choose an English name and use it while in the institution.

Besides Chinese, other Asian people also use English names, don’t you? It’s the first time hearing that. How did your students decide their English names? If I experience that situation, I don’t decide my names.

1. This does not refer to the other speaker.
2a. The refers to your ability to do it so you need to use CAN.
2b, 3. You need a SECOND CONDITIONAL here to refer to this hypothetical situation.
4. It is more likely that you would choose only one name.

That's right. They could choose whatever name they want or the manager chose for them. Some of them chose their English name based on the meaning of their original name.

Sounds interesting. I have never thought the boss chooses names. For example, my name is Saki, so what English name is popular?

1, 2. You need WOULD here to refer to this POSSIBILITY. After WOULD you need the basic verb form.

It's hard to say which English name is popular since there are many of them. In many countries, people have English names because their countries were colonised by Britain in the past. Perhaps Sally would be a good English name for you. What do you think?

Thanks for giving name. Sally is cutie name. Moreover, I have never considered why they have English names even if I know the colonies in the past. It’s a good opportunity to gain a new knowledge.

自然な表現

Thanks for giving me a name. Sally is a cute name. Moreover, I have never considered why they have English names even though I knew the countries were colonies in the past. It’s a good opportunity to gain new knowledge.

1. We give SOMEONE a name.
2, 3. See 4. in #4 above.
4. CUTIE is a noun. You need the adjective here.
5a. You need EVEN THOUGH here to make this contrasting points.
5b. Past tense of KNOW required here to refer to your previous knowledge.
5c. You need to explain WHAT were colonies.
5d. Use the past tense of BE to refer to the existence of them.
6. Not countable, so no article needed.
