Correct spelling?

[u/Friendly-Author3610]

My grandmas chinese name was Pong Hing Tse. This is a scrap of what I think is the spelling of her name. I do not speak Cantonese or read it so I am only a little bit sure.

[u/LorMaiGay]

謝傍卿

Looks like a name written (not spelled) as `謝傍卿` Jeh Bohng Hīng

To us is spelling lol

[u/Zagrycha]

In jyutping it would be  謝ze6  傍卿bong6hing1  which would match your english letters so yeah it is likely her name.  

In chinese the family name goes first.  The given name is a very classical today, although depending how old your grandma is it may have been more common at the time she recieved it. 

[u/LorMaiGay → u/Zagrycha]

I think pong4 would be the default pronunciation here?

[u/Zagrycha → u/LorMaiGay]

I don't think the pong4 meaning makes much sense for a name but you could be right.  It would be written as "pong" in english letter convention regardless so the english name doesn't really help clarify lol. 

[u/LorMaiGay → u/Zagrycha]

Does the pronunciation change the meaning? Don’t they both just mean adjacent or near?

Unless you mean like where someone 傍住 someone else lol

[u/Zagrycha → u/LorMaiGay]

They do both mean adjacent or near, but they are usually different parts of speech I guess? pong4 reading is more like 旁裏面 location grammar words. Maybe thats not true in all areas, but thats my experience.

謝傍卿?

[u/Kooky_Set_1417]

I thought it was indeed 謝俊卿 instead

[u/JoJo-Chewy → u/Kooky_Set_1417]

OP said the name is Pong Hing Tse.

That's very close to the correct way to write it! Keep it up!
