@missychryssy I'm two years too late, but better for those who still want to know. It's because he's from 大山, 中國. He's from DaShan China. I think that's right.

@briandee Incorrect, Western names also mean thing for example Kelly (son of kel) or pièrre (stone), only the names come from ancient languages that have not been preserved, while the names have.

@missychryssy

That's what it is if you literally translate the name.

Your question is really no different than someone asking something about a westerner such as, "Why is that man's name Benjamin?", or something like that.

A name like "big mountain" has a lot more meaning than our western names.
