No way! Nothings wrong with you for thinking it's funny. It's not funny...it's hilarious! Hahaha Asain kids tend to have umm... "weird" names...but yeah that's hilarious.

I think you may think it is wrong because you feel somewhat guilty about laughing about it.
I don't think it's funny if the child is too small to understand it and I think it's inappropriate to allow other kids to call him this in your classroom. Think of the day he realizes what it "could" mean and that no teacher stopped others from calling him that. Could be very embarrassing for him and you.
Sorry to be a downer, but I did give my opinion. I don't think you're a bad person for laughing at this at all; sometimes I laugh at things and then give it some thought and feel bad about it.

It's always ok to find something funny. It's not ok to deride someone with the intention of hurting that person. I'm sure that there are things about you that are ridiculous and hilarious to others and as long as you can laugh about those things there is no harm in having a healthy laugh about others. Just be honest and light and comedy can just be comedy.

Extremely funny, not the first time a heard a name that sounds like something inappropriate in English and Spanish. (I speak both languages)

Well, it is kinda funny, but I don't think it was funny enough to make someone laugh for an hour. (I know you were exaggerating) Anyways, I guess it's not that bad as long as you didn't do it right in front of his face.

It's ok for you to think it's funny, but I wouldn't talk about it to others or laugh right in front of the guy, everyone has feelings and think about if you were in his shoes...

No, no.
It is funny.
But you'll get over it. I wonder what his name means in his own language?
I suppose we have names which are funny in other peoples' languages. Did you know tina means "bathtub" in Spanish?
I dont' think it's bad to laugh. Just don't disrespect him.

I think we would all have a hard time not laughing at that one...maybe it would be nice if you explained to him though why you laughed for an hour..lol Very nice of you for considering his feelings!!

My brother went to a international boarding school...
There was this asian guy called Ka bom.
Pretty funny...
Also there was a guy in my class when I was in year 5 and 6, He was Fijian and his name was illimatuma (ill-i-ma-tama) quanabrarrbe (q-won-a-br-ar-be) We just called him illy.
