My background is Chinese Indonesian and according to what I have been told my family spoke the Fukien/Hokkien dialect of chinese. What I am looking for a translation of my romanized chinese last name Tjiam into the appropriate chinese character. My pretty much pronounce it as it is written, but it is entirely possible that they are not pronouncing it correctly.

Many thanks.
