Way way smaller set of names. Almost every Chinese person has one of a hundred surnames. Couple this with the fact that people often go by just their surname and things get confusing fast.
On the other hand Chinese given names are far more varied than those in English. I’ve never met two Chinese people with the same given name. Only about 300,000 people have the most common Chinese given name. In contrast, about 12 million people in the US are named John, but we’re a much smaller country than China.
