  It actually depends on the dialect. Foo can be Hu in Chinese, but I have a friend whose surname is Foo, but in Chinese it's written as Fu4.

  yes it happens too..
  
  actually ancient ple luan lai also la.. that's why it's so confusing now.

  the only people I have met with the surname oh are all hokkien,can anyone please clarify on this.
  
  is it true that foo and oh belong to chinese surname hu as quote by browniebaobao as follows:
  dun u all think threadstarter made it v confusing?
  
  anyway my surname is Oh.
  
  Some people always tot in chinese it's written as 'Ou' or 'He'.
  
  But actually it's neither 'Ho' nor 'Au'.
  
  'Oh' and 'Foo' actually have the same chinese surname written as 'Hu'
