Baby Panda's Name Announced: Hello Zhen Zhen



I voted, I WIN!!! Welcome Zhen Zhen, which means Precious. From San Jose Mercury News:


Following Chinese tradition, the zoo waited until the cub, which was born Aug. 3, reached 100 days old before giving her a name. More than 2,400 names were initially submitted by zoo visitors. Those were narrowed to four and then 36 percent of voters chose Zhen Zhen in an online poll. The other choices were Li Hua (Beautiful China), Ming Zhu (Bright Treasure) and Xiao Li (Little Beauty). The cub is still living out of public view in a private den with her mother, the panda Bai Yun.
That's not Zhen Zhen up there in the picture (by the way) though that Panda is just precious as well.
