Ming is a good English name for a man who wants to keep a Chinese sounding name, but have it be easy for English speaking people to pronounce and spell. It's not a name that anyone who is not Chinese would usually have, so people would tend to see it and assume you are Chinese. (Also, I am sorry not to be able to tell, but I can't see your picture very clearly on this computer, so I am not certain if you are a man or a woman. If you are a woman, then Ming would probably be a bad name to pick because people will think you are a man.)

If you want a natural English name, then sorry, "Ming" doesn't fit at all. It still sounds very Chinese. Still, we'll accept it as your name of course. :) Some natural English options based on your name - if you really want them - would be Charlie, John or Mike.
