Macao's twin panda cubs named

Photo taken on Sept. 1, 2016 shows twin panda cubs "Jianjian" (up) and "Kangkang" at a park in Macao, south China.

After a nearly two months wait, the adorable twin cubs born in Macao, Southern China finally have names.

The twin brothers were born on June 26 and have been officially named "Jianjian" and "Kangkang".

The names were proposed by over 1,000 Macao citizens. They represent good wishes from the Macao people, as "Jian" and "Kang" in Chinese means good health.

In addition to the blessing in meaning, the names also match the names of the cubs’ parents.
