85 Korean names for girls that have beautiful meanings
Korean given names are typically made up of two syllables. The first syllable is shared by everyone of the same generation in the family, while the second is unique to the individual. Each syllable also has a different meaning depending on the hanja (the Korean name for Chinese characters) used to write it.
The hanja reflects the traits and characteristics that Korean parents would like their child to have. And like other cultures, many of their names are centered around positive traits like beauty, purity, and goodness. It is also combined with names inspired by nature and good morals.
