About:Chinese Names

Hi - I have a question - a friend is writing a story about a character, a Chinese girl, whose name can be anglicized to Sunny. I have found Yi which apparently can mean happy, or firm and resolute, or harmony, depending on the website, but I have not found any word for the first part of the name. Can you suggest what would be a good word that would make a nice meaning? Also, in older tradition, would the first or second syllable be the generational name?

The first syllable will be the generational name, which is the family name as your called. Now you need to give here a family name, right?

The family name in China do not have too much meaning. But as your have give here a name yi, I think you can give here a family name Su. Su yi sound beautiful!
