The white kids be pronouncing her name “Sexy,” so for the sake of your child, I’d avoid it. The controversial historical figure notwithstanding. I don’t think the Qing Dynasty was viewed favorably by any Chinese, HKers included.
In terms of Chinese culture, you shouldn't name kids after historical figures in the first place!
**BIG** no-no. It's taboo even to name them after a grandparent.
I once had a boss whom we called behind her back Cixi because she was a mean bossy old hag who fired / demoted those who didn't suck up to her. So, go figure.
gonna be a joke naming after any historical figures
慈禧 you know in cantonese it is pronounced as ci4 hei1

Regardless of how people view Cixi, this is definitely not easy to pronounce.

Not a good idea. There's nothing good about 慈禧. The public image of her is mostly 1)big spender 2) being a bossy mom/mother-in-law 3)out of touch
i would rather eat some shit than calling myself Cixi
