Chinese names for English names

Easton in Chinese: 伊斯顿 or a real Chinese name?

When people look up their name in Chinese, they often find only a transliteration like 伊斯顿 and assume that is the best personal name. It is fine for identifying the English name, but it does not feel like a natural Chinese given name. A good Chinese name for Easton should sound smooth to native speakers, fit a masculine style, and carry a clear positive meaning. For this name, the best choices usually echo the sound lightly rather than copying it too literally.
